Whistleblower Protections Under Federal Law
Under the Whistleblower Protection Act, any
employee who alerts a manager, supervisor or
other superior to workplace violations or
violations of laws, rules, and regulations, is
protected from losing her/his job, facing a
monetary fine, or being a victim of harassment
both inside and outside the workplace.

What Violations do Whistleblowers Typically
Report to Superiors?
  • Examples of violations that whistleblowers may
    report to their superiors include, among others,
    the following
  • Violations of local, state and federal laws
  • Mismanagement of funds
  • Waste of funds
  • Fraudulent behavior
  • Abuse of authority
  • Safety violations, many of which can put
    employees and others at risk of suffering injury
    or death
  • Harassment (verbal, physical, and sexual, among
    others)

4
The Consequences of Reporting Misconduct to
Superiors
Many employees place their reputation at risk to
expose conduct that any person would consider to
be intolerable. As such, all employees should
take every measure possible to not only blow the
whistle on terrible behavior but also to protect
themselves under the Whistleblower Protection
Act. However, before employees can protect
themselves, they should first consider speaking
with a qualified lawyer who handles
whistleblower cases on a regular basis to find
out what legal options may be available.
