Corporate Whistleblowing In Vietnam

Whistleblowing plays a critical role in exposing misconduct, unethical and illegal behavior and corporate vulnerabilities that may give rise to misconduct. It can expose fraud, embezzlement, bribery, discrimination, harassment, safety violations, ineffective internal rules, etc. Whistleblowing's underutilization may be due to concerns about confidentiality. In addition, effort and commitment is required for the employer to create a whistleblowing mechanism. Once in place, organizations work hard to protect whistleblowers and provide the support they need to speak out against wrongdoing that they discover.

What is whistleblowing?

Corporate whistleblowing is very different from public whistleblowing, which involves reporting misconduct to a government authority. We focus only on corporate whistleblowing in the private sector, in which misconduct is reported to a corporate entity.
