What Is Whistleblower Retaliation?
When you report illegal or unsafe activities at your job, your employer cannot punish you. This is called whistleblower protection. However, some employers break the law and retaliate against workers who speak up.
Common types of whistleblower retaliation include:
- Getting fired from your job
- Being demoted to a lower position
- Getting suspended without pay
- Facing harassment or bullying at work
- Receiving threats from bosses or coworkers
- Having your pay or hours cut
