Protection For Whistleblower

A whistleblower will be accorded with the protection of confidentiality of the identity, to the extent reasonably practicable, provided that the disclosure is made in good faith. Such protection is accorded even if the investigation later reveals that the whistleblower is mistaken as to the facts and the rules and procedures involved.

Any party that retaliates against the whistleblower who has reported a concern in good faith may be subject to appropriate action, up to and including legal action, where applicable.
