Whistleblowing Policy

As part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining a workplace culture built on transparency, integrity and accountability, Ecorys has implemented a new Whistleblowing Policy.

Why whistleblowing matters?

Whistleblowing is a vital mechanism that empowers our employees, trainees, clients, partners, (sub)contractors and suppliers to speak up about any concerns related to unethical behavior, legal violations, or any other activities that may compromise the well-being of our organisation. By fostering an environment where one feels safe and supported in reporting such concerns, we can collectively work towards ensuring the highest standards of conduct and ethics across all levels of our company.

Key features of the Whistleblowing Policy

Our new policy aims to provide a clear and confidential channel for reporting concerns. Here are some key features:

Confidential reporting

The policy ensures that individuals can report concerns without fear of retaliation.
Anonymous reporting options are available to protect the identity of the whistleblower.

Defined reporting channels

One can report concerns through designated channels: in writing, via our whistleblower reporting form below, or verbally by calling one of the following numbers:
for Belgium +3223202943
for the Netherlands +31104538401
for United Kingdom +442039590350

Non-retaliation assurance

Ecorys is committed to non-retaliation against anyone who reports concerns in good faith.

Thorough investigation

All reports will be promptly and thoroughly investigated, and appropriate action will be taken based on the findings.

Our collective responsibility

Promoting a culture of integrity and accountability is a shared responsibility. We encourage you to familiarise yourselves with the Whistleblowing Policy and actively contribute to the well-being of Ecorys.
