9 Sep 2024 Acadia Healthcare Company, Inc.SEC: Acadia Healthcare pays 1,386,000 US dollars over waivers of whistleblower awards €1.26m
Between July 2019 and July 2023, Acadia Healthcare had employees waive potential awards for reports to authorities in 98 employment, separation, retention and settlement agreements; in 56 further separation and settlement agreements, they had to waive complaints to federal authorities. As part of a sweep against seven listed companies, Acadia paid 1,386,000 US dollars to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC); the contract templates were amended.
Separation and employment agreements must restrict neither reports to authorities nor the entitlement to whistleblower awards.
