Whistleblowing on the rise………..

Last year there were 1700 claims to Employment Tribunals that involved Whistleblowing.  This is where an Employee has been dismissed or suffered a detriment, which they allege results from making a protected disclosure, i.e. “blowing the whistle”.   

The Government has recently revealed proposals for Employment Tribunals to be able to pass on details about Whistleblowing claims to an appropriate regulator.
