“Whistleblowing” is the reporting of a (possible) breach of certain legal provisions by a person who has become aware of the breach in a work-related context (= whistleblower or reporting person).

The EU Directive 2019/1937 on the protection of persons who report breaches of Union law (“EU Whistleblowing Directive”) and the German Whistleblower Protection Act (“Hinweisgeberschutzgesetz”) protect reporting persons from retaliations as a result of reporting a breach. It has always been an important concern of Greencells GmbH to promote open communication within the company and to prevent possible compliance breaches. The new legal requirements were therefore taken as an opportunity to set up an internal reporting channel, whereby reports can be submitted particularly easily and securely via the reporting system “Proliance Whistle” of the compliance service provider Proliance GmbH.
