Building an effective whistleblowing framework can be complex. We asked Jon, our Client Relationship Director, who has spent 14 years working closely with organisations at Protect (it’s fair to say he knows this space inside out) to share his insights on what organisations can expect when working with Protect, the common challenges they face, and the real impact of getting whistleblowing right.
Lots to keep and eye on in 2026 for businesses and employers. New rules from the FCA, Provision 29 is introducing more responsibilities for board members, and lots of opportunities to engage with Protect in the new year!
Following a change in the law large organisations are now criminally liable if they benefit from fraud committed by a member of staff. It aims to discourage large organisations from turning a blind eye to fraud and to hold companies to account if they profit as a result. Protect hopes the new offence will help protect victims and reduce economic crime by driving culture change towards better internal fraud prevention procedures.
