As the EU Whistleblower Directive is being adopted in more and more EU member states, we are delighted to welcome Belgium's Van Olmen & Wynant as a WhistleB partner. While the EU Directive has not yet been transposed in Belgium it expected to become law in just a few months, introducing Belgium's first ever comprehensive whistleblower protection law. Van Olmen & Wynant and WhistleB are ready to help those companies that want to prepare for compliance already now.

In the article below, Van Olmen & Wynant provides a view on the state of play in the Belgian market, and explains why the firm partnered with WhistleB.

"WhistleB offers a great and fast alternative for setting up a new internal system which otherwise requires a lot of time and energy... For the Belgian market it is also a major advantage that the tool works in Dutch and French." Pieter Pecinovsky, Van Olmen & Wynant
