An evolution of regulations related to Ethics
The digitization of all sectors has prompted Europe to reaffirm the framework applicable to the protection of the privacy of any natural person.
It is with a view to transparency, information and loyalty that these regulations and laws have emerged: the
RGPD
(general regulation on the protection of years), the
Sapin II law
or the
international standard ISO 27701
.
Regardless of size, every business must comply.
For their part, customers, suppliers and employees are also concerned by the respect of their rights, in particular with regard to the subjects of
discrimination or harassment
, as demonstrated by current events with the freedom of speech and the "me too”.
Companies must ensure the protection of whistleblowers.
These regulations require meticulous administrative and legal work to maintain compliance.
New roles have thus emerged within the structures, such as the
DPO (Data Protection Officer)
, without entrusting them with the appropriate tools to properly carry out their mission – and this is where Witik comes in.
The need to face these risks
is
legal but above all moral
If in the past these issues were specific to large structures, Arnaud Zilliox, co-founder of Witik, reveals that today "
all companies
" are taking the subject in hand, a direct consequence "
of an awareness of entrepreneurs and employees
" .
.
Indeed, the major risk faced by entrepreneurs is a negative reputation linked to the non-respect of these values, because "
when an employee or a client chooses a company, he wants it to be ethically responsible
".
In addition, if the various administrations wanted to be tolerant and give companies time to comply with these new problems, administrative and financial sanctions are provided for in case of transgression of these regulations.
These fines, which can represent up to 4% of turnover, should increase in the coming years - a risk that most startups or SMEs cannot afford to take.
A comprehensive tool that makes business life easier
Although there are many tools to oversee compliance with these standards, most only focus on a specific issue where
Witik offers 6 100% integrated modules within the same platform
, to globally manage its compliance and respond ethical wagers in the world of work.
The platform was designed by placing efficiency and user experience at the heart of the teams' work.
Used independently of each other and managed by different service providers, these tools represent a heavy investment and prohibit a global vision of these issues, especially on a long time scale, making it difficult to enforce compliance.
Saving time and reducing errors in risk management is Witik's raison d'être.
In addition, their consulting firm supports companies in rapid compliance, since, as Nicolas Ducé, co-founder of the platform, points out, “
it is the risk that we do not see that arises
”.
Also a Datadock-referenced training organization, the Witik company also offers training and awareness-raising sessions adapted to the needs of companies.
Thus, Witik proposes to respond to these constantly evolving issues so that all players can protect themselves from reputational and financial dangers.
