On 15 June we invite you to take part in an online conference "Workplace Whistleblower Protection in the V4 Countries, France and Slovenia - Current Regulations and Proposed Changes" organized by the University of Lodz, Poland as a part of the "Workplace Whistleblowers' Protection in the V4 Countries, France and Slovenia (WhistlePro)" project.

The project focuses on the protection of workers who reveal irregularities or breaches of law in their organizations, both in the public and private sectors (whistleblowing). With the support of the Slovenian and French legislative experiences, it aims to contribute to the improvement of the legal framework in the Visegrad (V4) countries concerning the protection of whistleblowers and indirectly to the change of attitude of workers towards whistleblowing. The main goal of the project is to develop a model for the effective protection of whistleblowers in all the V4 countries, especially taking into consideration the obligation of all the EU Member States to implement the Directive (EU) 2019/1937 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2019 on the protection of persons who report breaches of Union law by 17 December 2021.

During the "Workplace Whistleblower Protection in the V4 Countries, France and Slovenia - Current Regulations and Proposed Changes" conference, Julia Besz, Associate in compliance team, will discuss the "Legal Design Methodology as the New Approach towards the Establishment of Rules for a More Effective Implementation of Whistleblowing Systems". 

The event will be held in English with simultaneous interpretations into V4 languages.
