Challenge

Since the introduction of the HinSchG, companies with 50 or more employees have had to set up a secure reporting office for misconduct. But that alone is not enough: employees need to know which matters can be reported at all, how a confidential reporting process works, and what protection against reprisals they are entitled to. Without this competence, the reporting office remains unused and the company remains blind to internal violations.

Learning objectives

You know the scope of the HinSchG and recognize reportable matters.
You know which internal and external reporting channels exist and what requirements apply to a report.
You understand the course of a reporting procedure, from the acknowledgment of receipt to the feedback.
You ensure confidentiality, data protection, and identity protection in the whistleblowing procedure.
You recognize impermissible reprisals and know the consequences of violations.
