Public and private organizations are required to establish an internal reporting system for this purpose, to review incoming reports, and if necessary, to take the necessary measures.

In this sense, according to the UVHG, all employees of the city of Lienz and their former employees have access to an internal reporting office if they have obtained information about violations of the legal provisions covered by § 3 UVHG in the course of their professional activities (see § 8 UVHG).
