What is Whistleblowing?

If an employee reports a wrongdoing at work that they believe is in the public interest, it is known as whistleblowing or protected disclosure. Examples of whistleblowing can apply to a criminal offence, such as theft or unethical or unjust behaviour in the workplace, including bullying, being treated unfairly, racist, sexist or homophobic behaviour.

These issues can be reported to an authorised person or organisation either within, or outside of the workplace. A whistleblowing policy is in place to avoid a miscarriage of justice.

Whistleblowing Support For Employees

Employees see, hear and experience difficult issues within the workplace and often feel scared to raise their objections to them. Early knowledge and intervention allow organisations to deal with the situation confidently and effectively.

Once a call is received, the appointed coordinator within the organisation will be notified and provided with the appropriate details, enabling them to identify and deal with the various matters of concern.

There is a whistleblowing law in place to safeguard and to ensure employees are not discriminated against for ‘blowing the whistle’. In the UK, whistleblower protection law and whistleblowing policies are in the Public Interest Disclosure Act (PIDA) 1998 and amended into the Employment Rights Act
