legalcode-whistleblower-program-builder

Build, audit, or optimize a whistleblower program compliant with EU Whistleblower Directive 2019/1937, US Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Section 806, Dodd-Frank Act Section 922 (SEC Whistleblower Program), France Sapin II / Loi Waserman (LOI n° 2022-401), and UK Public Interest Disclosure Act 1998 (PIDA / ERA 1996 Part IVA). Covers reporting channel design (internal and external), intake triage, investigation procedures, confidentiality obligations, anti-retaliation protections, program governance, regulatory deadline mapping, and board reporting. Use when building a new whistleblower program from scratch, auditing an existing program for compliance gaps, optimizing procedures for a specific jurisdiction or M&A integration, preparing a board readiness assessment, or reviewing employment agreements for confidentiality language that impedes protected reporting. Jurisdiction-agnostic framework with deep EU, US, FR, and UK specific analysis. Also applicable to CFTC, NLRB, OSHA, FCA, and sector-specific whistleblower regimes.
