Frequently asked questions about the whistleblowing system
What happens if a report I submit turns out to be false?
If the whistleblower has made the report in good faith, there will be no negative consequences. In the case of knowingly given incorrect information, legal action can be taken against the whistleblower. Administrative fines of up to EUR 20,000.00, in case of repetition up to EUR 40,000.00, may be incurred.
