whistleblower disclosures

Whistleblower disclosures happen when an employee or insider reports illegal or unethical activities within an organization, such as fraud, safety violations, or misconduct. These disclosures are made to authorities, regulators, or the public to expose wrongdoing and promote accountability. Laws often protect whistleblowers from retaliation, encouraging transparency and ensuring organizations are held responsible for their actions. Essentially, it’s a way for individuals to speak out against misconduct to prevent harm and promote ethical behavior in workplaces and institutions.
