An Overview Of State and Federal Whistleblower Laws In California

As explained by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), whistleblowers play an important role in our society “by bringing to light allegations of fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement and by reporting what they reasonably believe to be evidence of wrongdoing.” In many cases, whistleblowers are employees or other individuals with insider access to a business or organization. There are a number of different state and federal laws in place to protect the rights of whistleblowers. These laws largely prevent employers from taking adverse action (retaliation, reprisal, etc) against an individual engaged in whistleblower activity. Our Los Angeles business & employment lawyers represent clients in the full range of whistleblower claims, including in cases filed under the: 

  • Whistleblower Protection Act: The Whistleblower Protection Act (WPA) is a federal law that protects federal employees who report waste, fraud, abuse, or another violation of federal law. Federal agencies cannot take any adverse action against employees engaged in protected whistleblowing activity. If you have questions about the Whistleblower Protection Act, we can help. 
  • The False Claims Act: The False Claims Act is one of the most important whistleblower protection laws. Sometimes referred to as the “Lincoln Law”, the law imposes strict penalties on people and companies that defraud government programs. The False Claims Act includes strong whistleblower protections for employees who report suspected fraud, waste, or abuse. 
  • SEC and OSHA Whistleblower Protection Programs: Some federal agencies, including the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA), operate their own whistleblower protection programs. In some cases, whistleblowers may be entitled to a financial award if they report a violation that results in successful enforcement action. 
  • California Whistleblower Protection Act: The California Whistleblower Protection Act is our state’s most important whistleblower protection law. Under the statute, the law protects every state employee who reports alleged waste, fraud, or abuse of state government resources. If you have any questions about your rights or responsibilities under the California Whistleblower Protection Act, please do not hesitate to contact our Los Angeles business & employment lawyers for help.
