A “whistleblower” is anyone who alerts the government or their employer of improper conduct or fraudulent activity committed either inside of or outside the company by which they are employed. Whether to “blow-the-whistle” is a hard decision to make, even though it may be the morally correct thing to do. Unfortunately, whistleblowers are often the victims of retaliation in the workplace. The upside is that recent federal legislation has created whistleblower reward programs and qui tam provisions which are designed to incent employees to do the right thing and come forward to report fraud and wrongdoing.
