Directors and employees to disclose any misconduct or criminal offence through an internal channel. Such misconduct or criminal offences includes but is not limited to;

1. Fraud;

2. Corruption, bribery, or blackmail;

3. Abuse of Power;

4. Conflict of Interest;

5. Theft or embezzlement;

6. Misuse of Company’s Property;

7. Non Compliance with Procedure.

This is not to invalidate the Disciplinary Action Process and Procedures as reflected in the Employees’ Handbook but to provide more avenues for directors and employees to disclose improper conduct committed or about to be committed to the Company.

​

Whistle-blowing is intended to encourage and enable directors and employees to raise Concerns with the Company for investigation and appropriate action. With this goal in mind, no director, or employee who, in good faith, belief, without malicious intent, reports a Concern shall be subject to retaliation or, in the case of an employee, adverse employment consequences. Moreover, an employee who retaliates against someone who has reported a Concern in good faith is subject to discipline up to and including dismissal from his/her position or termination of employment.

 

A whistleblower may submit his Concerns through any of the following channels:-

Phone : 03-5614 3289 or

Email : hr@fle.com.my or

Post : 39, Gravitas, Jalan 22/6, Seksyen 22, 40300 Shah Alam, Selangor.

 

A whistleblower will be accorded with the protection of confidentiality of the identity, to the extent reasonably practicable. In addition, an employee who whistleblows internally will also be protected against any adverse and detrimental actions for disclosing any improper conduct committed or about to be committed within FLE, to the extent reasonably practicable, provided that the disclosure is made in good faith. Such protection is accorded even if the investigation later reveals that the whistleblower is mistaken as to the facts and the rules and procedures involved.

Any anonymous disclosure will not be entertained. Any director or employee who wishes to report improper conduct is required to disclose his identity to the Company in order for the Company to accord the necessary protection to him. However, the Company reserves its right to investigate any anonymous disclosure.
