Whistleblowing refers to the act of reporting wrongdoing, illegal activity, or unethical behavior within an organization. Whistleblowers typically report these activities to authorities, regulatory bodies, or media outlets when internal reporting mechanisms fail or are ineffective. In Europe, whistleblowers are protected under various legal frameworks to ensure they can report such issues without fear of retaliation.
