Whistleblower Retaliation

Whistleblowing is the reporting, or complaining about, unlawful, fraudulent or unethical conduct in the workplace. The reporting can either be internally (to a supervisor) or externally. California law and federal law protect an employee from being fired or otherwise retaliated against for engaging in whistleblowing.

Examples of Complaints by a Whistleblower

  • Shareholder fraud
  • Health and safety code violations
  • Financial mismanagement
  • Fraudulent marketing practices

Helpful Tip:

Document The Behavior

To help prove your case, it is important you document your reporting and the retaliation you experienced (i.e save offensive emails, memos, text messages, etc). Of course there will be times when this is not possible, but remember the more evidence you have, the more it will help your case!
