If you've been retaliated against for speaking out about workplace misconduct, we can help. Our attorneys are committed to protecting employees who have been punished for doing the right thing.
Whistleblower retaliation occurs when an employer takes adverse action against an employee for reporting illegal activities, misconduct, or safety violations. Adverse actions can include termination, demotion, harassment, or any other negative treatment as a result of the whistleblowing activity.
Whistleblowing involves reporting any illegal activities, fraud, safety violations, or unethical practices within an organization to authorities or regulatory bodies. This can include reporting to internal management, government agencies, or the media.
Proving whistleblower retaliation involves demonstrating a connection between the whistleblowing activity and the adverse action taken by the employer. Evidence such as emails, performance reviews, witness statements, and the timing of the adverse action in relation to the whistleblowing activity can support your case. Consulting with an employment attorney can help build a strong case.
If you face retaliation for whistleblowing, document all instances of retaliation, gather any supporting evidence, and report the retaliation to your HR department or a higher authority within your company. It's also important to consult with an employment attorney to understand your rights and potential next steps.
Compensation for whistleblower retaliation can include lost wages, back pay, reinstatement to your position, compensation for emotional distress, and punitive damages. The specific compensation depends on the details of your case and applicable state laws.
Several federal and state laws protect whistleblowers from retaliation, including the Whistleblower Protection Act, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Dodd-Frank Act, and various state-specific whistleblower protection statutes.
No, it is illegal for an employer to fire you for reporting illegal activities, misconduct, or safety violations. Such actions are protected under whistleblower protection laws, and firing an employee for these reasons can be considered retaliation.
