As the U.S. Department of Labor states, “[r]etaliation occurs when an employer (through a manager, supervisor, administrator or directly) fires and employee or takes any other type of adverse action.” Retaliation may also occur against a contractor. Whistleblowers in particular have unique recourse under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s Dodd-Frank Whistleblower Program and under the False Claims Act. What forms does retaliation take, is it against public policy, and how does it vary within the context of Dodd Frank and the False Claims Act? In typical lawyer fashion, the answers are that nuances exist and it depends. The purpose of this webinar is to explain the differences, highlight case law and enforcement actions, and provide lawyers with suggestions that they can, in turn, integrate into client conversations on both sides of the aisle.
