Whistleblower protection provisions enter into force

Today, 25 September 2024, most provisions of the Whistleblower Protection Act, including those concerning internal reporting, come into force. Accordingly, entities employing, as of 1 January or 1 July of a given year, at least 50 persons, will be required, among other things, to implement an internal reporting procedure.

We have already hinted in detail in HRlaw about who is required to introduce the procedure and how this obligation is to be fulfilled. We have also indicated on our portal what whistleblowers will be able to report. Violations of the new provisions may result in sanctions and claims.
