Maintaining a culture of integrity, accountability and transparency is essential to CERN’s mission and to our working environment. To strengthen this commitment, CERN has launched a new whistleblowing line, offering members of the community a safe, accessible and protected way to report suspected misconduct in good faith. Of course, the whistleblowing line must not be used to make false accusations against others or to report information known to be untrue.

Why this matters

Speaking up is key to safeguarding CERN’s values. This new line is designed to support responsible reporting, ensuring that individuals feel safe, heard and protected when raising concerns.

How to access it

The whistleblowing line, along with CERN’s Whistleblowing Policy and further information, is available at  https://cern.integrityline.io and can also be found on the “Ethics at CERN” webpage: https://hr.web.cern.ch/ethics.
