To expand a state whistleblower law so it prohibits a company from threatening to fire an employee who reports not just a violation of law but also a planned violation, or orders to participate in one or in a cover up. The bill would also extend this law’s protections to independent contractors and prospective employees, and would also authorize sharing with a whistleblower part of any money recovered by the state as a result of a report.
Referred to the Committee on Government Operations
