WHISTLEBLOWING
Add Value has implemented the Whistleblowing Procedure, complying with the provisions introduced by the 2019 legislation relating to the "Protection of authors of reports of crimes or irregularities emerging in a public or private working context" (known as Whistleblowing).
This procedure aims to offer any individual, including Customers and Suppliers, the opportunity to report behaviour, risks, crimes or irregularities, committed or attempted, harmful to the interests of the Company or in any case likely to violate the Code of Ethics.

Italy has implemented the European Directive with the Legislative Decree. 10 March 2023 n. 24 (hereinafter the “Decree”).
With the adoption of this Policy, the company Add Value SRL (hereinafter, the "Company") intended to comply with the aforementioned regulatory requirements, as well as the guidelines provided in this regard by ANAC. The objective pursued is to provide the whistleblower, i.e. the person who reports the violations, with clear operational indications regarding the subject, contents, recipients and methods of transmission of the reports.
