What protection does California law provide to whistleblowers? – II

Posted on March 2, 2017 | By Omid Nosrati | Firm News,Retaliation

Last week, our blog began discussing how those employees who find themselves in the unenviable position of wanting to report illegal employer conduct, but also fearing potential reprisals must understand that they are protected under state law.

Specifically, we discussed how employees of public and private entities who report violations of state or federal law, noncompliance with rules/regulations or unsafe working conditions are protected from workplace retaliation by the California Labor Code, and how similar protection is extended to those employees who refuse to participate in such conduct.
