Internal audits
The Prolink team conducts internal audits with precision and professionalism, supporting organizations that may not have an internal audit function or where it cannot directly manage the process.
With cross-disciplinary expertise in labour law, compliance, and HR management, we help ensure full compliance with UNI/PdR 125:2022 requirements, providing in-depth and consistent monitoring aligned with certification objectives.
Internal reporting channel
In line with UNI/PdR 125:2022, we implement an internal reporting channel, also available anonymously, allowing employees to report discriminatory or inappropriate behaviour.
This tool is more than a compliance requirement: it is an active listening channel, enabling companies to gather feedback, insights, and proposals, thereby reinforcing a culture of respect, inclusion, and dialogue.
