Resources
The ETUCLEX resource library offers an overview of available external resources from European and international organisations as well as from within the trade union movement.
This self-learning tool is part of the Eurocadres project "Whistleblowing in European Workplaces". Among others, 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.
This guide explains both the legal requirements and the practical steps for national policy-makers and employers working toward ensuring adequate internal reporting channels.
The guide further offers clear steps for how trade unions can take an active role during the transposition of the Whistle-blower Directive and in the whistleblowing process.
The toolkit makes policy recommendations based on case studies and best practices, with a view to support trade unions that wish to engage in the transposition process and the protection of whistle-blowers.
