Legal framework for whistleblower
The protection of references is anchored in the Non femberber Protection Act (HinschG), which implemented the EU Directive 2019/1937 in national law. According to the lawyer , internal reporting points with at least 50 employees are legally obliged to set up. These places must enable confidential reports and establish strict examination processes for incoming information. Panel may not fear reprisals when acting. The law ensures protectors against negative consequences such as discrimination or salary reductions as long as the information falls into the factual scope of the HSchG.
In order to effectively report grievances, information should primarily be transmitted via the report canal of the St. Pölten University Hospital. An external message is only permitted if the use of the internal channel is unreasonable, as is given on the website of the GW St. Pölten
