The draft law n°7945 transposing the Whistleblowing Directive 2019/1937 into Luxembourg law has been submitted to the Chamber of Deputies in January 2022. The draft law introduces rules to make sure that necessary and appropriate reporting channels are available for whistleblowing but also that whistle-blowers benefit from an effective protection. The final transposition should be imminent as it should have been done by the end of 2021 already. It will oblige in scope entities to set up an internal reporting channel (and immediately for certain of them). Companies that have not taken any action yet should therefore start thinking about the design of their future Whistleblowing policies and reporting channel.

During this conference, Audrey Rustichelli, Deputy Managing Partner and Head of the Technology and Intellectual Property Department and Sabrina Alvaro, Counsel and Head of the Labour Law Department will present the future legal framework for whistleblowing and the key aspects to consider for the implementation of an effective and compliant internal reporting procedure.

Moving from legal considerations to practice, the participants will have the possibility to have a look at a demonstration of a whistleblowing software and to obtain practical recommendations from Tamara Czetto, Manager in Anti-Financial Crime and Forensics at PwC SC.
