Whistleblower schemes must be established in all private workplaces with 50 or more employees.
Large workplaces must have a whistleblower scheme in place by December 17, 2021, whereas medium-sized workplaces must have a whistleblower scheme in place by December 17, 2023.
The whistleblowing scheme can be fully or partially outsourced to an external third party, including, for example, a reporting platform provider, lawyer or auditor.
Even if the workplace outsources the task of receiving the report, one or more persons should be appointed as an internal whistleblower unit at the workplace who can communicate with the external third party in cases where, for example, there is a need to obtain additional information at the workplace or where the investigation of a matter may give rise to a decision on reactions. In addition, it is appropriate that the workplace is aware of the reports received, as the workplace must ensure that it complies with its obligations under the Whistleblower Act.
2people gives you 3 options for compliance:
- Built-in whistleblower system, where you must establish an internal whistleblower unit to receive and process reports. The unit must consist of one or more impartial persons.
- Built-in whistleblower system where 2people's partner Blanner Compliance screens reports and handles the initial feedback to the reporter on your behalf and reports back to you.
- You can use a different/external whistleblowing system that you purchase access to yourself. This system can be integrated into the 2people platform so your employees have a single point of entry. Here we can recommend our partner GapSolutions, a Danish system that specializes in this area.
There is no requirement to implement whistleblowing software, but it can be a great benefit as it makes it much easier to comply with legal requirements.
