The challenge

What the Whistleblower Protection Act means for your company
and why e-mail is not enough

Since July 2023, companies with 50 or more employees must set up an internal reporting office. Those who fail to act risk fines.

Case processing & data protection

Whistleblowers should be able to make personalized or anonymous reports, but it must still be possible to communicate back. It is practically impossible to present the entire case history transparently by e-mail or letterbox.

Deadlines & feedback obligations

The HinSchG requires a confirmation of receipt within 7 days and a response within 3 months. Without a system, you will quickly lose track of current deadlines.

Protection from reprisals

Your process must ensure that whistleblowers are not disadvantaged. Without clear documentation of the protective measures, there is no proof for the authorities.

All HinSchG obligations in one platform

The whistleblower system covers all requirements of the Whistleblower Protection Act, the EU Whistleblower Directive and the LkSG complaints procedure.
