Whistleblower Gender Split
Gender Divide
Most of our whistleblowers who apply for support identify as male. This aligns with research studies that show that men are more likely to blow the whistle than women, potentially as statistically female whistleblowers face greater retaliation than their male counterparts.
The reporting age
The majority of whistleblowers who apply for support seem to be between the age of 46 and 55. This is in line with global research, which reports the average age of whistleblowers to be around 45 years old. Contributing factors to this include experience and professional exposure, ethical development, job security and tolerance and generational maturity.
Location
While we still only provide support locally in South Africa, the majority of our whistleblowers come from Gauteng and the Western Cape.
