On 13 July 2021, we invite you to participate in the webinar:

Decoding and systematizing the obligations of employers: Essential Legal and Tech requirements to ensure compliance with the Whistleblowing Legislation.

By December 17th 2021, Romania must complete the process of transposing into national law the Directive for the protection of persons who report breaches of Union law (the “Whistleblowers’ Directive). Similarly to other countries, Romania intends to expand the protective measures significantly beyond the requirements of the directive. In this context, we invite you to a discussion focused on decoding and systematizing the rigors that companies/ the private business sector/ employers in general must comply with, as soon as the law transposing the Directive enters into force.

The online event is aimed at clarifying aspects including:
  • Minimum investments and maximum results; ensuring compliance through the right/optimal sizing of time related efforts and financial resources.
  • Why may existing whistleblowing systems, which companies have already used for a number of years now, prove to be insufficient for companies?
  • What are the technical requirements, and what are the options available to ensure compliance with the legislation on the whistleblowers’ protection but also on the protection of personal data?
  • Data protection in practice. What to consider in the „Whistleblower” context?
  • The good and the bad – how can we facilitate whistleblowing and reward whistleblowers? Aspects regarding the protection against pseudo-whistleblowers.
  • The legal framework regarding the protection of whistleblowers in labor relations.
  • Liability of whistleblowers for violations committed as employees (including false reporting).
  • When should smaller employers start to observe the requirements for the protection of whistleblowers?

The webinar proposes an integrated LEGAL & TECH approach – thus, we are pleased to welcome to the speakers’ panel the representative of WhistleB, a leading provider of whistleblowing management software. More details about WhistleB are available HERE.
