San Diego city leaders are considering adopting anti-retaliation language to enhance whistleblower protections for employees. The proposed language would provide additional safeguards beyond state law.
San Diego city leaders want to strengthen whistleblower protections for employees by adopting anti-retaliation language similar to San Francisco and Oakland. The language would go beyond state law by specifying that employees can't be demoted, terminated, or suspended for reporting suspected fraud, waste, or other abuses of city resources .
The city's municipal code currently only includes whistleblower protections for certain actions.
