When the Board ignores... Ethics deteriorate!


Since 2001, Eni’s Board of Directors has systematically turned a blind eye to the truth: I was fired in retaliation after complying with the company’s own Code of Ethics

Recently, I attempted to contact an independent board member at Eni, Mrs. Cristina Sgubin – the only one who accepted my connection request – to present facts and irrefutable evidence about my story. However, she didn’t even read my message!

If board members themselves are unwilling to listen to a whistleblower, how can they fulfill their essential role as "Guardians of Ethics" and "Corporate governance"? The silence and inaction of the Board have serious consequences for Eni’s reputation, undermining the trust of its stakeholders, including Shareholders and investors who expect transparency, integrity, and accountability.

Ethics cannot be just a statement – it must be a practice!

After 20 years... My fight continues!

Exactly 20 years ago I fulfilled Eni’s Code of Ethics...

20 years ago I was fired by the corrupt executives that I reported...

For 20 years I contacted four different Boards and three CEOs...

For 20 years I have been suffering reprisal...

In these 20 years, I try to make Eni fulfill the words and the spirit of its own Code of Ethics... 

For 20 years I try to rescue and restore my name, my honor and my reputation...

My fight continues!

ESG vs Whistleblower Protection


In many companies around the world, when someone is hired, the Code of Ethics is introduced to the new employee, who is informed that the code is the main instrument of the company’s governance and the guideline to all the corporate actions. However, when reporting any nonconformity to the Code of Ethics, or deviations of conduct of colleagues or superiors, the Whistleblower is fired, has their professional career destroyed and their reputation buried.

For a company to be ethical and fulfill all the premises of the ESG, it is necessary to protect the Whistleblowers and influence other companies to do the same.

Otherwise, the Code of Ethics won’t serve any purpose and the company will only have a nice ethical speech!

Eni's Board: put yourself in my shoes!

One of the greatest virtues of a man (and a woman) is to put himself in someone’s shoes. This worthy attitude makes use find out first-hand what the other is experiencing!

What if it was one of you living what I’ve been going through in these almost 20 years? How would you feel? What would you think of the attitude of Eni’s Board, which goes against the premises, the principles and the values of Eni's Code of Ethics?

Eni & Shell: The Bribery of the Century

 

Commenting on the judgment, a spokesperson for campaign groups Global Witness, HEDA, Re:Common and Corner House said: "The judgment lays bare the stinking carcass of the OPL 245 deal. Many will be mystified by the conclusions drawn by the judges. The bar they have set for a conviction for international corruption is impossibly high - presenting companies with a 'get out of jail free' card. We urge the public prosecutor to appeal this judgment, which, if allowed to stand, creates a terrible precedent for the global fight against corruption and the ability to hold fossil fuel companies to account.”
