Abstract

Whistleblowing is a form of anti-fraud strategy that can be applied in various organizations, including in the public sector. The facts show that public sector fraud in Indonesia is still going on, although it has implemented the whistleblowing system in the government sector. Fraud triangle indicates that fraud caused by pressure, opportunity and rationalization. Of these three factors, pressure and rationalization are influenced by individual factors. This indicates that the individual factor becomes one of the causes of fraud. Individual factors can be traced to behavioral aspects. This research presents a variety of whistleblowing mechanisms in the context of behavioral aspects.
