What Is Whistleblowing?

Whistleblowing involves notifying authorities or the public of an organization’s illegal or unethical actions. In general, people engage in whistleblowing to protect public safety, preserve the integrity of their organization, or meet ethical standards.

LEGAL PROTECTIONS FOR WHISTLEBLOWERS IN CALIFORNIA

California has robust legal protections in place for whistleblowers.

These key protections include:

California Whistleblower Protection Act: This act safeguards public employees from retaliation for reporting various violations, such as unethical practices or law violations.

California Labor Code section 6310: This state code prohibits employers from retaliating against employees who report workplace violations or refuse to participate in them.

California False Claims Act: This act allows whistleblowers to bring what are called “qui tam” actions against corporations, organizations, or individuals who fraudulently obtain public property or funds. The act also lets whistleblowers bring actions against those who fail to pay money or transfer property they owe to the state.
