Compliance – Schutz von Hinweisgebenden durch ein Hinweisgebersystem

18 Mar 2024 Germany 2 min read

On this page

The EU’s Whistleblower Directive (2019/1937) was transposed into national law in Germany by the Whistleblower Protection Act (Hinweisgeberschutzgesetz, HinSchG). The Whistleblower Protection Act came into effect on 2 July 2023.

We have developed an e-learning course for your employees that answers the essential legal and organisational questions relating to the whistleblower protection provided by having a reporting system in place. The course also explains how a whistleblowing system works and encourages staff to report potential issues internally rather than contacting the relevant external reporting office.
