The German Federal Ministry of Justice has presented a draft law to implement the EU Directive on the Protection of Whistle-blowers, which will come into force on December 17, 2021.
Businesses as well as municipalities and their subordinate authorities will be obliged to set up an anonymous and secure reporting channel for whistle-blowers.
Whistle-blowers are encouraged to refrain from reporting to supervisory authorities or the public media. Through the internal reporting channel, the affected legal entities will protect whistle-blowers from reprisals and at the same time promote a trust-based workplace culture.
We set up a secure online platform for you that whistle-blowers can use – anonymously or by voluntarily disclosing their identity.
The online platform is branded in your corporate identity (CI). This way, the whistle-blower knows that they are contacting the right place.
Optionally, we can set up a phone hotline for you, which offers whistle-blowers an alternative reporting channel.
The online platform is GDPR-compliant and hosted in a German data centre.
