The Skills Assessment Report – Evaluating Organizational Capacity in Whistleblower Protection released by VoiceGuard project team focuses on organizational skills and competences of those responsible for handling and receiving reports.  

The research was applied in six EU Member States: Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Greece, Luxembourg, Romania and Spain. Thus, gaps were analyzed creating disconnect between the official legal implementation of Union law and the practical skills of those responsible for its execution on an organizational level. VoiceGuard project research reveals that the organizations currently lack the operational maturity required to truly protect whistleblowers.
