Summary
The EU Whistleblowing Directive (2019) protects people who report violations of EU law, including violations of the EU AI Act starting August 2, 2026, by requiring organizations to set up reporting channels and prohibiting retaliation against whistleblowers. Whistleblowers can report internally within their organization, to government authorities, or publicly in certain urgent situations, and various institutions offer free legal and technical support to help protect them.
