EU Whistleblowing Directive – Croatia

Whistleblowers protection already in place

Croatia had a Whistleblowing legislation in place since 2019.

The aim of this Act is the effective protection of whistleblowers, which includes ensuring accessible and reliable ways of reporting irregularities.

Current implementation status

The amendments of the current Whistleblowing legislation to implement the Directive are part of a Plan of harmonization of legislation with the Acquis Communautaire for 2021.

A discussion for a draft law has been scheduled on the Government’s agenda the 15 December 2021.

As of today, the new whistleblowing law is still being discussed in Parliament.

The official deadline for transposition being overdue, infrigement proceedings have been initiated against Croatia.

Next steps

The final draft for the law proposal remains to be available.
