DSA Trusted Flaggers

Last updated: 6 months ago

Under the European Union’s Digital Services Act (DSA), providers of online platforms are required to ensure that reports about illegal content submitted by Trusted Flaggers are given priority and processed without undue delay.  

Status as a Trusted Flagger is awarded by the Digital Services Coordinator of the EU Member State in which the entity is established. The European Commission publishes a list of the names, addresses, and email addresses of entities who have been awarded Trusted Flagger status.  

LinkedIn has developed a dedicated process for those entities who have been awarded Trusted Flagger status in accordance with Article 22 of the DSA. If you are an authorised representative of such a Trusted Flagger entity and would like to be on-boarded to LinkedIn’s Trusted Flagger tools, please fill out this application form. LinkedIn will then contact the entity on whose behalf you are attempting to act to confirm that you are authorised to report content on their behalf. Please note that we will only respond to on-boarding applications from authorised representatives of entities awarded Trusted Flagger status in accordance with Article 22 of the DSA. 

In the meantime, if you see something you believe may violate our policies, whether in profiles, posts, messages, comments, or anywhere else on LinkedIn, please report it to us by clicking on the three dots icon in the upper right-hand corner of the content itself on LinkedIn.
