Federal Law Protection for Whistleblowers
The federal government has laws in place to protect employees from safety and health hazards in the workplace and even to the environment, as caused by an employer. The Clean Air Act, the Safe Drinking Water Act, the Solid Waste Disposal Act are among some of these laws. An employee who seeks federal protection under these acts must be confident that their employer is violating these acts and complain either to the employer or a federal agency. Even if the employer turns out to be legally compliant, the employee is protected from retaliation.
State Law Protection for Whistleblowers
Common law and general statutes at the state level prohibit discrimination/retaliation against whistleblowers. As with federal law protection, the complainant must be sure of their allegations against the employer, refuse to participate in the unlawful activity and assist in investigating the same. State laws tend to vary. We, at the Law Office of John Klopfenstein will tell you just which laws are applicable where to protect you from employer retaliation shall you resort to filing a legal claim against them.
