Whistle Blowing Policy

Aurous Consultancy’s Whistle-blowing Policy is aimed at achieving and maintaining high standards of conduct at work, openness and accountability.

Employees and stakeholders, including suppliers are encouraged to report genuine concerns about any misconduct without fear of reprisals should they act in good faith.

Whistleblowers are encouraged to put their names to allegations because relevant follow-up enquiry and investigation may not be possible unless the source of information is identified.

Aurous Consultancy will take all reasonable steps to protect the whistle-blower against any discrimination, retaliation or harassment. Party that retaliates against someone who has reported a wrongdoing in good faith may be subject to appropriate action, up to and including legal action, where applicable.

If the subsequent investigation reveals that the disclosure was made with malicious intent, appropriate action will be taken against the whistleblower.

‘Misconduct’ means any unethical behaviour, malpractice, illegal act or failure to comply with Aurous Consultancy’s policy and procedures, including but not limited to:

A whistleblower may report his/ her concerns to the following designated officers:

A misconduct can be also reported by submitting the Whistle-blowing Incident Report Form (WIRF) with the designated officer. The sample of the WIRF is appended in the Appendix .
