Whistleblower software
Whistleblowing software to securely manage confidential reports and protected disclosures
Whistleblower reports and protected disclosures require careful handling from the first moment they are received. They may involve anonymous reporting, confidentiality, legal obligations, board reporting, audit committee involvement, retaliation monitoring, evidence, investigations and sensitive outcomes. As whistleblowing software, Dazychain HR helps HR teams, Legal, Risk and Compliance teams manage protected disclosures, whistleblower reports, ethics complaints, fraud concerns, corruption concerns and serious misconduct matters in one secure platform. It gives your whistleblowing program one secure system to record anonymous and named reports and manage them through to closure.
The problem: confidential disclosures need stronger controls
Protected disclosures, whether reporting misconduct, fraud or serious policy breaches, are not ordinary HR matters. They may involve:
If these matters are handled informally, organisations can create
serious risk to the reporter’s identity, whistleblower protection and legal compliance.

Frequently asked questions about whistleblower software
Whistleblower reports and protected disclosures require careful handling from the first moment they are received. Dazychain HR gives HR, Legal, Risk and Compliance teams one secure platform to manage protected disclosures, whistleblower reports, ethics complaints, fraud concerns, corruption concerns and serious misconduct matters, with restricted access, confidential case management, investigation workflows, evidence management, escalation tracking and audit trails.
Dazychain HR supports protected disclosures, whistleblower reports, ethics complaints, fraud reports, corruption concerns, bribery concerns, conflicts of interest, procurement misconduct, serious policy breaches, retaliation concerns, serious misconduct and confidential investigations.
Dazychain HR can create a restricted matter file for each confidential disclosure. The matter is marked confidential, access is restricted and it is assigned to an authorised HR, Legal, Risk or Compliance owner. Controls can include restricted access, a confidential matter flag, limited user groups, legal and risk escalation, evidence protection and retaliation monitoring.
Each matter can record whether the reporter is anonymous or named, along with their preferred contact method. A report can be submitted or entered into Dazychain HR, and the matter is then marked confidential with access restricted.
A typical workflow has seven steps: the disclosure is received, the matter is classified as confidential, an authorised owner is assigned, an initial assessment covers risk, legal obligations, escalation and the investigation pathway, the investigation manages evidence, allegations, witnesses, findings and recommendations, decisions, corrective actions and notifications are recorded, and retaliation monitoring, follow-up actions and closure records are completed. The process can be configured to suit your compliance requirements, jurisdiction, local, state or national laws.
Each matter can include the disclosure type, anonymous or named reporter, preferred contact method, people involved, business unit, location, description of concern, supporting documents, date of conduct, whether conduct is ongoing, retaliation concern, immediate risk, confidential classification, legal involvement, external reporting requirement, board and audit committee notification, investigation workflow, evidence register, findings, outcomes, corrective actions, closure record, audit history and record retention fields.
Leaders can report on high-risk matters while protecting details. Dazychain HR tracks board and audit committee notifications, supports board and committee reporting and trend reporting, and keeps escalations, decisions, documents and actions on record.
