SIT promotes an open corporate culture based on ethics, transparency and responsibility, inspired by the values that guide us: trust, integrity, courage, passion and inclusion.
For this reason, SIT provides an internal channel for reporting to the Supervisory Body any information relating to employees of the Company and/or third parties concerning violations of laws and regulations, the Group’s Code of Ethics and Conduct (including sexual harassment), the Organisational Model 231, as well as the current system of rules and procedures. This channel is not available for commercial complaints or for disputes and requests related to personal interests.
In particular, all conduct that is even potentially capable of constituting an offence, or of violating the law or internal regulations/procedures, the company’s Code of Ethics, and also conduct and facts that may constitute harassment or discrimination based on gender, must be reported. This channel is not available for commercial complaints or for disputes and requests related to personal interests.
Thanks to the active and responsible participation of employees and third parties in reporting any non-compliant behaviour, the company is able to identify any irregularities and promptly take corrective action, thus preventing possible economic or reputational damage.
Who can report?
Anyone can submit a report, even anonymously: employees, former employees, job applicants, partners, customers, suppliers, consultants, collaborators, shareholders and, more generally, anyone with a legitimate interest in the company’s activities.
The report must be adequately detailed, i.e. it must contain sufficient information to allow the facts reported to be ascertained (e.g. elements that make it possible to identify the persons involved, the context, the place and time period of the reported facts, and supporting documentation).
How to report?
A report can be submitted via the Whistleblowing Portal (to access CLICK HERE), which ensures the confidentiality of the whistleblower’s identity through the use of secure protocols and encryption tools. At the end of the submission process, the Portal provides a Unique Identification Code which allows you to check the processing status and send and receive communications (also anonymously);
How reports are handled
Reports are received by the Supervisory Body.
Within 7 days of receipt, an acknowledgement of receipt will be provided and within 3 months of such acknowledgement, feedback will be given on the action taken or intended to be taken in response to the report.
Confidentiality and safeguards
Legislative Decree no. 24 of 10 March 2023 (implementing the European Directive 2019/1937 on Whistleblowing) has introduced a unified regulation of reporting channels and protections for whistleblowers in both the public and private sectors.
Absolute confidentiality is guaranteed for the whistleblower, the facilitator and those involved in the report. In the case of anonymous reports, it is not possible to trace the identity of the whistleblower.
No form of personal or professional retaliation as a result of the report is permitted or tolerated. If you believe you have suffered retaliation due to a report, you can report it to the National Anti-Corruption Authority (ANAC) via the online platform.
All processing of personal data is carried out in compliance with data protection legislation.
