Welcome to the online self-learning tool on whistleblowing

Welcome to Eurocadres' online self-learning tool on whistleblowing. This self-learning tool is part of the Eurocadres project "Whistleblowing in European Workplaces"

The aim of the tool is to allow you to learn about:

  • what whistleblowing is and how it is part of an organisation's speak-up culture
  • the EU Whistleblowing Directive, national frameworks, a legal assessment by a law professor and the positions of experts from different unions
  • ways in which unions can support shop stewards, works council members and professional and managerial staff in establishing good whistleblowing policies and processes in an organisation
  • seven experts from five countries accompany your learning in the various modules, sharing their national experience. Examples include setting up and running a "whistleblower house", best practices on establishing good whistleblower policies and processes, and how unions - together with shop stewards and works council members - can sway employers to establish good internal whistleblower channels and an external channel reporting to a regulator
  • Eurocadres president Martin Jefflén shows us why this topic matters for unions and managerial and professional staff, and how Eurocadres has engaged with the topic at European level
