Bottega SpA, channel for reporting offenses pursuant to Decree no. 24 of 2023 (Whistleblowing)

Dear Whistleblower,

Decree no. 24 of 10 March 2023, containing the new whistleblowing regulations, introduces into our regulations aimed at protecting those who report particular violations of national law or of the European Union and has, as its main purpose, that of bringing to light illicit conduct of which the whistleblower has become known within the working context, providing for the creation of specific communication channels communication that guarantees the confidentiality of the identity of the reporting person, of the person involved and of those possibly mentioned in the report, as well as the content of the report itself e of the relevant documentation.

The entities falling within the scope of application of the whistleblowing regulations are, therefore, obliged to activate an adequate internal reporting channel, which meets the requirements required by law. The channels of internal reporting, to be considered adequate, must be capable of ensuring confidentiality of the identity of the reporter (distinguishing the concept of "confidentiality of the identity of the reporter" from that of anonymity, as anonymous reports are not considered whistleblowing) and of people involved (reported, facilitator, any other third parties), the content of the report and the documentation relating to it.

Through this platform, the whistleblower therefore has the possibility of reporting any illicit conduct learned about in the work context. In order to enjoy the guarantees referred to in the Whistleblowing Decree, it is necessary for the whistleblower to provide the own data, without prejudice, however, that the reporting may also take place anonymously: in this case, the reporting may follow a different path (where, for example, this is provided for by a specific procedure company) or the reporting party will be able to identify themselves at a later time, being assured at that point protections referred to in the Decree, in particular where he has suffered retaliation.
