Procedure details

EU Directive 2019/1937 on the "Protection of persons reporting breaches of Union law" has been transposed into national law by the Whistleblower Protection Act (HinSchG).

The Whistleblower Protection Act protects all persons who, in connection with their official or professional activities, have obtained information about specific violations covered by Section 2 of the Whistleblower Protection Act and forward this information to reporting bodies.

The protection of the whistleblower extends, for example, to reprisals based on a report of breaches of regulations such as denial of promotion, dismissal in the case of employees covered by collective agreements, change of area of responsibility, disciplinary measures or discrimination.

All former and active employees can contact the relevant internal reporting office if the requirement of becoming aware of a matter in a work-related context is met; information obtained during the recruitment process can also be reported to the internal reporting office.

Regulatory violations can include, for example

  • Violations of public procurement regulations,
  • statements made by civil servants,
    • which constitute a breach of the duty to comply with the constitution,
    • regulations on the protection of personal data and
    • other actions subject to criminal penalties and fines

can be.

However, the reporting system is not intended for criminal charges or other matters that do not relate to misconduct in an official context; if necessary, please contact the relevant authorities, for example the police.

The report must be submitted to the internal reporting office responsible for the authority.

The disclosure of business secrets or information subject to confidentiality obligations to reporting offices is covered by the HinSchG; however, the acquisition of this information must not be based on a criminal offense. If false information is reported intentionally or through gross negligence, there may be a legitimate interest in the identity of the reporting persons in order to be able to assert any claims for damages.
