401 Whistleblowers Welcome: EU Sets New Direction for European Compliance

Main points covered: 

  • The EU Whistleblower Protection Directive presents a new model for how companies respond to internal whistleblowers.
  • As more countries explore North American style whistleblower reward programmes, the EU has taken a different tack
  • When the EU Directive takes effect, member states must adopt robust protections and companies will have an exciting opportunityto rethink corporate best practices and embrace whistleblowers
  • Meanwhile, member states can and should explore additional measures to encourage whistleblowers beyond the minimum standards required by the EU Directive
