WHISTLEBLOWING POLICY

OUR POLICY

DSGN is committed to upholding high standards of transparency, accountability, and ethical conduct, in line with good corporate governance practices. This Whistleblowing Policy provides a clear framework for raising concerns responsibly and ensures protection for those acting in good faith.

Whistleblowing is the voluntary disclosure of inappropriate, unethical, or unlawful behaviour within DSGN. It applies to misconduct by management or employees and includes concerns about how employees or third parties are treated. This policy is intended to:

  • Encourage and enable individuals to raise serious concerns rather than overlooking a problem
  • Ensure that all individuals feel confident in raising serious concerns
  • Provide clear and appropriate avenues for reporting concerns and receiving feedback on any actions taken
  • Offer a clear response to concerns and guidance on further steps if the outcome is unsatisfactory
  • Reassure individuals that they will be protected from retaliation or victimization if they make a disclosure in good faith and with reasonable belief
  • Maintain confidentiality by restricting disclosure to relevant parties only

Disclosure

To ensure protection under this policy, whistleblowers are encouraged to disclose their name and contact details to facilitate a more efficient and thorough investigation. All disclosures will be handled with strict confidentiality, and whistleblowers will be protected under this policy.

Where possible, disclosures should include:

  • Brief description of the misconduct.
  • The date and location of the incidence.
  • The identity of the wrongdoer.
  • Supporting evidence and/or relevant documents.
  • Particular of witnesses, if any.
  • Other details deemed to be useful to facilitate screening and action to be carried out.

If a disclosure falls outside the scope of this Whistleblowing Policy (e.g., personal grievances, performance-related matters), DSGN reserves the right to redirect the disclosure to the appropriate grievance or resolution channels.
