The Supreme Audit Institution (SAI) has launched the reporting platform, Wajib, nationwide. Developed and launched by the Abu Dhabi Accountability Authority (ADAA) in May 2022, the platform will now be implemented across ministries and federal entities throughout the seven emirates, enabling individuals to report any financial or administrative violations, solidifying the UAE's dedication to uphold the principles of integrity, transparency and accountability.
The Wajib platform is accessible and easy to use. It has been distinguished as a leading secure digital reporting platform in the country allowing individuals to report any administrative or financial and administrative violations. The platform is designed to be inclusive for all members of society, conforming with rules and regulations in terms of protecting anyone who witnesses and reports wrongdoing in efforts to support national actions against violations.
The platform is specifically designed to maintain the highest levels of privacy and confidentiality in protecting all reported data, as well as personal information of individuals who come forward with details that reveal violations or instances of violations. The reports can be filed and submitted through the platform by anyone who witnesses unlawful or damaging practices that undermine the integrity of the government, including employees, customers and suppliers of government related entities.
Spokesperson of SAI, said: “We are keen to provide government entities, officials and the general public across UAE, with the required tools and platforms to take part in our fight to eliminate financial and administrative violations[ST1] by promoting the principles of integrity, accountability and transparency. Since its launch, the Wajib platform has shown that it is an effective tool for the reporting process and has become a great success in that manner and we believe that the adoption of Wajib on the federal will result in positive outcomes and benefits.”
Spokesperson ADAA said: “The implementation of the Wajib platform across the UAE is a great leap forward in our mandate to uphold the principles of integrity, transparency, and accountability, as it is our goal to be the frontrunners of safeguarding not only Abu Dhabi’s public funds and resources but the entire nation’s as well. Through our strategic partnership with SAI, the reach of the Wajib reporting platform widens to help protect public funds across the country.”
