Whistleblowing
At ccha, we believe in our values, “we care about our customers and staff and wider environment”, and we would want to know where we do not live up to those values.
The Government refers to Whistleblowing matters as “those that are about unlawful conduct, financial malpractice or dangers to personal health or safety of the environment”.
At ccha, we aim to be open and transparent, and we have reviewed and updated our Whistleblowing Policy and reporting procedure. We have clear criteria for what is reportable, who to report it to and how we support anonymity.
Have a look at our Whistleblowing Policy. If you have a concern that meets the criteria, you can contact us at voice@ccha.biz.
