Whistleblower Channel
iBET operates in accordance with high standards of professional responsibility and ethics. To support this, an iBET whistleblower channel has been established, allowing employees or any other third party to directly and confidentially identify possible irregular situations or infractions.
Introduction
iBET conducts its activity according to high standards of professional responsibility and ethics, governed by the principles of integrity, transparency, honesty, loyalty, accuracy and good faith.
We believe that principles and behavior embody the values and establish the guide for an organization’s actions, strengthening its reason for existing. We believe that the way we work, how we develop and relate to each other dictates who we are and the Culture that is lived in an organization.
In this sense, a channel was created that allows employees or any other third party to directly and confidentially identify possible irregular situations or infractions, including real or potential reasonable suspicions that have occurred or that are considered to be very likely to occur, related with:
- Crimes foreseen in art. 5 of the general corruption prevention regime, approved by Portuguese D.L. 109-E/2021 of 12/09, regarding corruption and related infractions;
- Acts or omissions contrary to the norms provided for in art. 2 of Law 93/2021 of 12/20, which transposes Directive (EU) 2019/1937 on the protection of persons who report violations of EU law.
The implementation of this channel intends to facilitate the early prevention of irregular situations which, if they were to be practiced, could cause serious damage to iBET and its stakeholders.
This channel allows anonymous reception, or optionally reception with identification, and is implemented in accordance with the requirements set out in Law no. 93/2021 de 20 de dezembro – Regime geral de proteção de denunciantes de infrações. Therefore, iBET guarantees to the whistleblower the level of protection defined by law and ensures non-retaliation against him.
