Whistleblowing Training for Employers Certificate

Whistleblowing Training for Employers

This course will teach you the importance of whistleblowing in an organisation and educate you on what the process entails. It will enable you to implement a whistleblowing policy and train your staff in the procedures and protocols of whistleblowing.

Whistleblowing means that a worker in a company or organisation can report wrongdoing or dangerous practices utilising a protected disclosure to the management or a third party. As management, you need to buy in to and endorse this process to support your workers and bring transparency and ethical practices into your company.

Workers will automatically be protected by whistleblowing law if they follow the correct protocols and report criminal activity or civil disobedience, and you will need to facilitate the process for them.

What You Will Learn:

  • What whistleblowing is.
  • When whistleblowing is acceptable, when it's an obligation, and when it is not appropriate and another form of disclosure should be used.
  • The procedure of whistleblowing and how to train your staff and management to follow the procedure.
  • The risks and problems which could arise from whistleblowing
  • How to ensure that your staff are never penalised or forced to suffer any detriment due to whistleblowing.
  • The legal requirements and regulations related to whistleblowing and your role and responsibility as a manager.

Benefits Of Taking This Course:

  • Have a vital skill to help bring honesty and transparency to your company.
  • Be able to offer guidance and counsel to whistleblowers in your company.
  • Bring a broader spectrum of proficiency into your company including an endorsement of ethical behaviour and transparency.
  • Empower yourself, fellow management and staff.
  • Know how to develop an effective whistleblowing policy that meets legal requirements.

I really enjoyed taking time to complete this Floristry diploma course online. I have been flower arranging for a few years now and wanted to improve my knowledge and skills. The course was very detailed and the assignments were good, some very creative, I found the history very interesting and how the different periods used flowers for decoration. I am really interested in wedding flower design modules fourteen and fifteen were of particular interest to me. I also found the starting your own business section very helpful. I would definitely recommend for anyone interested in Floristry to take the course.

Siobhan Conway

As the Head of HR, I always have to keep up to date on all law. This course was brilliant and helped me brush up on some areas I hadn’t worked on for some time. Really great value and also very user friendly – brilliant purchase!

For me personally, I have a Masters in HR Management and I love to keep developing and learning and this course was a brilliant way to satisfy my hunger for learning but I could also fit it in with my full time role – win win!

Another positive edition to anyone’s CV – would recommend to anyone even if you are just curious about your employee rights!

Amy Knight

Amazing course with so much detail. All the modules are easy to read and flow from one subject to the next. It was really easy to enrol on the course too and I received my log in information the same day that I enrolled. I would recommend the course to anyone wishing to pursue a course in floristry.

New Skills Academy is a great site to use for learning as it is easy to follow, the layout of the course work makes is very easy to understand and good to make notes from.
