Whistleblowing.

When you witness wrongdoing, risks or malpractice at work, blowing the whistle is the right thing to do. And yet there’s still a stigma around whistleblowing. A stigma we’re fighting against.

Our whistleblowing cases, most recently Gilham vs Ministry of Justice, have resulted in changes to the law and forced whistleblowing to be recognised as a fundamental human right.

Raising a concern in the public interest prevents harm and raises the standards in both the public and private sectors. Which is why there are laws in place to protect whistleblowers. But before you take this step, it’s important to understand the legal process and how best to protect your position and future career.

Whether you’re reporting issues to your employer, a regulator or both, depending on the industry you work in there may be specific routes you need to go down to blow the whistle. It’s important you get this right. We can make sure that you do.

If you’ve already blown the whistle, you may find that your employer is treating you unfairly. If you’ve been shunned, bullied, disciplined, demoted, pressured to resign, been suspended or even dismissed after blowing the whistle, we will stand up for your rights.

Blowing the whistle, and dealing with the aftermath, can be stressful and difficult. We know exactly what to do to keep stress to a minimum and to secure a positive outcome for you.
