Protection for whistleblowing must be extended to everyone - TopicsExpress



          

Protection for whistleblowing must be extended to everyone involved in a business ??– including partners in law firms, the Law Society has said. It was responding to a call for evidence from the Department for Business, Innovation & Skills (BIS) on the ‘Whistleblowing Framework’, a set of measures introduced under the Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act to strengthen protection for whistleblowers. Under the Employment Rights Act 1996, partners in firms, along with volunteers, members of the armed forces, officeholders and job applicants are not entitled to protection. It is also unclear which type of self-employed contractors the legislation applies to, said the Law Society. lawgazette.co.uk/practice/extend-protection-for-whistleblowers-says-law-society/5038626.article
