**By June 18, 2022, companies (whether public or private) and public entities, especially those employing 50 or more workers, are obliged to implement a whistleblowing channel so that workers, shareholders, members of corporate bodies, service providers, suppliers and other reporting parties, including within the context of a professional relationship that has since ended, might report breaches of the legislation referring to various areas.**





In the sense of providing companies with legal support in the process for implementing this new legal obligation, through the establishment of a channel and procedures for internal complaints, Garrigues has organized a multidisciplinary team, with all the skills needed for analyzing the most relevant aspects of the business reality of its clients, advising on the creation of a reporting channel and preparing all the documents and procedures needed for this operation.

[**Here**](https://www.garrigues.com/sites/default/files/documents/everything_you_need_to_know_about_the_plan_to_implement_new_whistleblowing_legislation_in_portugal.pdf) is a summary of the main questions arising from the Whistleblowing regulation and on how companies can implement the measures introduced by the new law.
