10 Oct 2025 Ministerstvo vnútra Slovenskej republikySlovakia: another EUR 70,000 fine for the interior ministry over transfers of whistleblowers SlovakiaRetaliation against whistleblowers €70,000

The Slovak Whistleblower Protection Office again fined the Ministry of Interior, this time 70,000 EUR. From the end of August 2024 the ministry had issued personnel orders, without the Office's consent, against five protected whistleblowers in the police service, transferring them and removing them from their posts. The President of the Office dismissed the appeal on 24 November 2025.

What organisations can take from it

An organisation already sanctioned for measures against whistleblowers needs a binding approval process that checks every personnel decision against the protection register.

Relevance to training and awareness

Consent requirement before personnel measures against protected whistleblowers
