“…15 Whistleblowing is closely linked to public safety and social interests, and can enhance the effectiveness of risk management. 16 The early warning mechanism through whistleblowing can function properly only when the whistleblower’s personal safety and basic rights are protected. Whistleblowers are in fact often in a disadvantaged position owing to internal pressures imposed on them by their employers even though their exposure of information is conducive to social benefit and protecting the public interest.…”

Purpose During the early warning period of public health emergencies, the information released by whistleblowers on the risk posed by the given event can reduce uncertainty in the public’s risk perception and help governments take timely actions to contain the large-scale dissemination of risk. The purpose of this study is to give full play to whistleblowers and draw attention to the risk events, forming a pluralistic model of the risk governance during the early warning period of public health emergencies. Methods We construct an evolutionary game model of the early warning of public health emergencies through whistleblowing that involves the government, whistleblowers, and the public, discussing the mechanism of interaction between these subjects under the uncertainty of risk perception. Furthermore, we use numerical simulations to analyze the influence of changes in the relevant parameters on the evolutionary trajectory of the subjects’ behaviors. Results The results of the research are obtained by numerical simulation of the evolutionary game model. The results show that the public’s cooperation with the government encourages the latter to take a positive guidance strategy. Increasing the reward for whistleblowers within an acceptable cost, strengthening the propaganda of the mechanism and the higher level of risk perception of the government and whistleblowers will promote whistleblowers’ vocalization actively. When the government’s reward for whistleblowers is lower, the whistleblowers choose negative vocalization with the improvement of the public’s risk perception. If there is no mandatory guidance from the government at this point, the public is prone to passively cooperating with the government owing to a lack of risk-related information. Conclusion Establishing an early warning mechanism through whistleblowing is important for containing risk in the early warning period of public health emergencies. Building the whistleblowing mechanism in daily work can improve the effectiveness of the mechanism and enhance the public’s risk perception better when the public health emergencies arise.

“…Por sua relevância, as denúncias também foram objeto de diversos estudos que fazem interface com a moral, sociologia ou psicologia. em especial whistleblowing (e.g Clements & Shawer, 2015;Robinson, Robertson, & Curtis, 2012;Johansson & Carey, 2016;Tsahuridu, 2019). Mais raras contudo, as pesquisas que abordam os fatores motivadores ou inibidores da denúncia sem (whisltleblowing) ou com favorecimento (delação premiada) em um contexto de fraude corporativa de natureza contábil (Taylor & Curtis, 2010;Dinc, Kuzey, Gungormus, & Atalay, 2018).…”

Com objetivo de investigar o efeito – inibidor ou motivador – da emoção ‘medo’ e a disposição do indivíduo de participar e denunciar a fraude corporativa, observou-se os ‘medos sociais’ organizacionais em 332 sujeitos, expostos a 3 cenários: participação em fraude; whistleblowing (sem participação na fraude ou favorecimento) e delação premiada (participação na fraude e favorecimento pela denúncia). Os resultados revelam que a disposição para participar da fraude está positivamente relacionada aos medos da ‘hierarquia’ e ‘de perder benefícios econômicos na organização’ e, negativamente, aos medos ‘da norma penal’ e de ‘colocar em risco a reputação no mercado de trabalho’; para whistleblowing têm-se os medos de ‘ser desleal com a empresa’ e ‘da reprovação familiar e de amigos’ e na delação premiada, os medos ‘de colocar em risco a reputação no mercado de trabalho’ (motiva) e o ‘de reprovação pelos colegas’ (inibe).
