Description
With the new EU directive on whistleblowing, organisations with at least 50 employees will have to establish reporting channels by December 2023. It will affect many organisations and people in the EU, but also outside the EU. We'll discuss how to adapt to this new legal framework and create a system that works for everyone, especially those who may be vulnerable.
This session is an opportunity to explore what an effective whistleblowing management system looks like, in the development of whistleblowing channels, the management of whistleblowing reports and for whistleblower protection. We will also consider the risks and opportunities for whistleblowers with the development of new whistleblowing legal framework in countries without judicial independence and rule of law.
