It studies each national law through a selection of indicators derived from reference frameworks and guidance by inter-governmental organizations (e.g. UNODC, OECD) and global civil society organizations (e.g. Transparency International, the International Bar Association). It aims at drawing a picture of each studied member state’s approach to specific questions such as which public sector employees should benefit from a statutory whistle-blower protection, under which conditions and what such protection entails. The study concludes by observing that although enacting national laws protecting whistle-blowers is a relatively recent trend, such laws present a broad diversity of approaches which contrasts with the relative consistency of institutional recommendations.1 online resource (61 pages)engInternational Labour Organization 2025Attribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/anticorruptionWhistle blowingWhistle blowers--Law and legislationWhistle blowers--ProtectionLeaks (Disclosure of information)international lawpublic serviceEthics of lawRights based legal ethicsLabour/professional ethicsProtecting whistle-blowers in the public service : a global survey of whistle-blowing laws applicable to the public service sectorBook
