Summary/Abstract: The interest in whistleblowing is a relatively new phenomenon in Poland. There does not exist any special law protection for whistleblowers. Despite this fact in Polish companies there is a consent and an employee’s interest in revealing malpractices which take place at work. In addition with the increase of the gravity and danger of malpractice the declared willingness to whistleblow grows. Low level of trust in Polish society has its reflection in implementing mainly formal mechanisms of control averting wrongdoing. The changes should be aimed at increasing the role of core values and organizational culture to support whistle-blowers and prevent malpractices.
