European Whistleblower Directive

The European Whistleblower Directive is a law designed to protect individuals who report wrongdoing or illegal activities within organizations, such as businesses or public institutions. It encourages people to speak up about issues like corruption, fraud, or safety violations without fear of retaliation, such as losing their job or facing legal consequences. The directive establishes safe reporting channels and requires organizations to take appropriate measures to safeguard whistleblowers. By promoting transparency and accountability, it aims to create a more ethical environment in the workplace and society at large.
