Hadef & Partners is pleased to have contributed the United Arab Emirates chapters to the fifth edition of International Employment Lawyer’s Guide to Whistleblowing.
Authored by Chris Bailey-Gibbs, Partner and Head of Employment, Hadef & Partners’ contribution provides guidance on the whistleblowing framework across the UAE onshore, Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) and Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM).
The guide provides a comparative resource for employers and in-house counsel navigating whistleblowing requirements across jurisdictions and considers key issues including the legal basis for whistleblowing, implementation of internal procedures, the scope of protected disclosures, confidentiality, reporting processes and protections available to whistleblowers. The live IEL guide covers these issues through a detailed 31-question framework.
