Whistleblowing guidance
This guidance supports the Highland Council’s Whistleblowing Policy. It helps employees and workers understand how to raise concerns about serious wrongdoing in the workplace.
It explains:
- what whistleblowing is and how it differs from other types of complaints
- the types of concerns you can report
- how to raise a concern confidentially
- what happens after you report a concern
- where to get advice and support
You do not need proof of wrongdoing to raise a concern. You just need to believe it is true and in the public interest.
