In accordance with the provisions of Legislative Decree 24/2023, Dedagroup S.p.A. and the companies of the Deda Group have set up an internal whistleblowing channel for the receipt and management of reports, including anonymous ones.
Anyone — employees, collaborators, partners or third partiescan report any non-compliant behaviour, including:

  • administrative, accounting, civil or criminal offences;
  • violations of the Organisation, Management and Control Model pursuant to Legislative Decree 231/2001;
  • offences or irregularities in the areas of finance, personal data protection, consumer protection, health and safety, and EU financial interests;
  • conduct that may cause damage to the company or violate its principles, values and regulations.

Reports are processed through a dedicated platform that guarantees the confidentiality and integrity of information and the traceability of activities. The analysis is entrusted to a multi-person body that is formally responsible for managing the evaluation process. During transmission, it is possible to select the Deda Group company to which the report is to be sent.
Dedagroup guarantees the protection of the identity of the whistleblower and takes all necessary measures against any form of retaliation against employees, collaborators, consultants, suppliers or other individuals operating within the company.
