Disclosure protected by law

With the EU whistleblower directive that entered into force in October 2019, the law sets requirements for the protection of persons reporting suspected abuse. A whistleblower must not be subject to countermeasures.

The EasyWhistle notification channel is a whistleblowing service independent of an organization’s IT systems. The service is provided by an external service provider, Easywhistle Oy, Finland. The service meets the requirements of the EU Whistleblower Directive.

The messages sent through EasyWhistle end up in the notification portal used by the organization. Here, the responsible persons receive information about the case. People in charge can see your message by logging in. Typically, the responsible persons are human resources, legal managers and compliance experts, as well as possibly occupational health and safety representatives.

​All messages and attachments are encrypted. There is no way for any external person to access and read the notifications in the system. Easywhistle Oy is also unable to see messages. The system audit trail function logs information about when and who opened the announcement.
