ISO 37002: Guidelines for Whistleblowing Management Systems

ISO 37002 provides guidelines for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and improving a whistleblowing management system. It is based on the principles of trust, impartiality, and protection.

Key Components

• Trust: Building confidence in the system so that people are willing to report.
• Impartiality: Ensuring that reports are dealt with fairly and objectively.
• Protection: Safeguarding whistleblowers from retaliation.

Why Adopt It?

Adopting ISO 37002 demonstrates that an organization is following global best practices. It can be a powerful differentiator in tenders and a strong defense in legal proceedings.
