Frequently Asked Questions about our Whistleblower protection services

What is a reporting office under the Whistleblower Protection Act?

An internal reporting office is an independent platform where employees of a company and third parties can report grievances anonymously and securely without fear of reprisals. This reporting office can also be provided and managed by an external service provider.

Why should my company set up a reporting office?

The law requires employers with at least 50 employees on a regular basis to set up and operate an internal reporting office in accordance with the law. A reporting office guarantees neutrality, protects against conflicts of interest and ensures that all legal requirements (e.g. data protection and anonymity) are met. It strengthens the trust of employees and minimizes legal risks.

When setting up a hotline, care must be taken to ensure anonymity and the confidential handling of reports. For example, our software-based reporting center complies with the highest data protection standards, including the GDPR, and ensures that all reports are treated confidentially and securely.
