Establishing a policy and building a culture that helps to protect
organizations from financial wrong-doing, criminal or civil
liability and permanent damage to corporate reputation has become a
central theme of contemporary corporate policies towards
'whistleblowing'. This book is amongst the first to provide a
detailed and full-length analysis of the meaning and various
justifications of whistleblowing policies. While the legitimization
of organizational whistleblowing suggests an adaptation of
organizations to public opinion, this book examines the wider
legitimization whistleblowing policies have been given, considering
whether the establishment of 'policies' genuinely leads to the
implicit institutionalization of whistleblowing itself. The book's
particular focus is upon what kinds of 'whistleblowing' societies
and organizations actually want, and whether policies developed as
a result meet expectations.
