About this event

The long-awaited Whistleblower Protection Act is currently an important topic in Poland. On 19 June 2024, the Polish Whistleblower Protection Act received parliamentary approval.

In this webcast, we will look at the legal requirements and practical implementation of the new Whistleblower Protection Act in Poland. Our aim is to give you a sound insight into the legal background of this law and to show you how you can implement it efficiently, easily and, above all, legally compliant in your company.
