Úrad na ochranu oznamovateľov, based in Bratislava, is an independent institution with nationwide coverage that protects the rights of whistleblowers. If you have encountered corruption, fraud, or any other wrongful practice at work, you don't have to face it alone. Our office is here to help you.

We specialize in cases that pose a threat to the public interest. Our unique competence allows us to intervene if an employer dismisses or retaliates against an employee who has reported something unlawful. What do we offer? Firstly, we can provide whistleblower protection by granting the individual the status of a protected whistleblower.

This ensures that they won't face wrongful termination or other unjust actions from their employer, as any negative employment action requires approval from our office. Additionally, if you've received a termination notice because you've chosen not to remain silent, we can suspend its effectiveness for 30 days, during which you can seek legal review. In the most serious cases where it's crucial to protect the whistleblowers' identity, we file criminal complaints on their behalf.

Úrad na ochranu oznamovateľov is committed to safeguarding the interests and rights of individuals who expose wrongdoing in the workplace. Stay informed about our activities and important updates on our website
