Reporting Channel

Copel’s Denunciation Channel is a secure means for registering denunciations about fraud, corruption, discrimination, moral and sexual harassment, ethical and conduct deviations and other irregularities, and also for consultations related to the Code of Conduct. All the information is received by an external, independent company specialized in receiving complaints from both the internal and external public. 

All reports that contain information that can identify the whistleblower are de-identified by the contracted company, if the whistleblower has chosen to speak anonymously, and forwarded to the investigation team of the Integrity Coordination of the Governance, Risk and Compliance Department (DRC). 

The investigation process is structured to ensure confidentiality in handling the complaints received, which includes reserved physical facilities, restricted access to documents, reports and all the work done.
