Whistleblower protection systems today are not only a regulatory requirement, but also an integral element of organizational governance and risk management. Well-designed procedures allow organizations to detect irregularities at an early stage, reduce liability, and build trust within teams. In practice, this means clear reporting channels, confidentiality, no retaliation, and clear post-reporting procedures.
Together with the organization, we design and implement whistleblower systems that comply with regulations but are also practically applicable. We support and advise on how to handle unjustified or unlawful reports. Our approach focuses on organizing responsibility, procedures, and decisions—both from the employer’s side and the whistleblower’s.
What we help with in the area of whistleblower protection?
Designing whistleblowing procedures
We create internal procedures and regulations that cover reporting channels, confidentiality, roles, and how to handle reports.
Protection from retaliation
We advise on procedures to prevent retaliation and ensure that employer decisions comply with legal requirements.
Whistleblowers in employment relations
We support employers in matters related to employment, termination, changes in working conditions, or any other actions when a report has been made, to assess the risk of these being considered retaliatory actions and ensure compliance with the law.
Compliance procedures and integration with HR
We help integrate the whistleblower system into existing HR and compliance processes without creating redundant structures.
Handling reports and follow-up actions
We advise on the qualification of reports, documentation of actions taken, and decision-making after the reports are received.
Support in proceedings and audits
We represent parties in proceedings before authorities and courts in whistleblower-related matters.
