Summary/Abstract: It is commonly known that the whistleblower suffers from public disgrace. In defiance of his important role for the preservation of the public interest, he does not have a privileged place in society and in the professional field. Therefore, we find necessary that he finds a statute at the juridical level and consequently an emerging protection. We state that the European Court of Human Rights forged some important instruments for his necessary protection. Moreover, at the European level, the Directive (EU) 2019/1937 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 October 2019 on the protection of persons who report breaches of Union law, transposed at the national level, provided some minimum criteria commonly for all the member states.
