In addition to the statutes referenced above, there are a multitude of other federal and state whistleblower protection laws that make it illegal for employers to retaliate against employees who blow-the-whistle on employer transgressions such as environmental and safety violations, misuse of public funds, and fraud on the public. The time limits to file retaliation claims under the various statutes are often very short and in some cases only 30 days.
