ISO 37002 - Whistleblowing Management system
The ISO Whistleblowing Standard is a set of guidelines to help businesses set up whistleblowing management systems based on trust, fairness, and safety. Because the guidelines are flexible, they can be used in different situations depending on the size, type, complexity, and legality of the organization's work. The guidelines might help a company improve its current whistleblowing policy and procedures while ensuring they align with relevant whistleblowing laws.
Businesses can use the ISO Whistle-blower Guidelines to set up, run, maintain, and improve a whistleblowing management system. These guidelines are meant to achieve the following goals:
- Giving people reasons and making it easier for them to report wrongdoing
- Seeing to it that reports of bad behavior are looked into quickly and correctly
- Improving both the organization's culture and the way it is run
- Providing support and protection for people who blow the whistle as well as other interested parties
- lowering the likelihood of unethical behavior
ISO 37002: Why?
A set of rules called the ISO Whistleblower Guidelines explains how to create, use, and keep up a good system for handling whistleblowing. These principles are based on trust, fairness, and safety and are set up in four steps.
- Receiving reports of wrongdoing
- Assessing reports of wrongdoing
- Addressing reports of wrongdoing
- Concluding whistleblowing cases.

Any organization can use ISO 37002 as its management system standard, regardless of size, industry, or organizational structure. It will be possible for organizations to solve a lot more problems, including many that would get worse otherwise. This will protect the organization and its stakeholders from harm. It also gives you a new way to look at the culture of your business or group.
Through the implementation of the proposed ISO 37002 Management Systems Standard, the following goals will be met:
- Helping companies set up consistent whistleblowing systems that create safe spaces, encourage people to feel confident in reporting wrongdoing, and handle concerns quickly and properly.
- Helping companies set up consistent whistleblowing systems that create safe spaces, encourage people to feel confident in reporting wrongdoing, and deal with concerns promptly and appropriately.
- The growing number of reported cases of misconduct needs to be dealt with, including the problem of people reporting it too often.
- Advancing democratic values and being open to scrutiny. It is planned that ISO 37002 will be used as a document that can be used on its own. The suggested standard could also be used with other standards that are already in place, like those that govern organizational governance and systems for anti-bribery, compliance, and other management.
