9 Sep 2024 a US healthcare companySEC: healthcare company pays 1,386,000 USD over waivers of whistleblower awards USARetaliation against whistleblowersanonymised €1.26m

Between July 2019 and July 2023, the healthcare company 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, the company paid 1,386,000 US dollars to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC); the contract templates were amended.

What organisations can take from it

Separation and employment agreements must restrict neither reports to authorities nor the entitlement to whistleblower awards.

How the radar is compiled

Official sources only

Every case is based on a decision, press release or database of an authority or a court. Press and law-firm reports count at most as additional references.

Four-eyes check

Whoever enters a case may not approve it. A second, independent check compares company, date, amount and area of law with the source. Only then is the case published.

Comparable amounts

Amounts are converted at the ECB reference rate on the day of the decision. Each case also shows the original amount.

Corrections on record

A correction is a new version that is checked again. Every change is logged. You can report errors directly on each case.

Case texts are translated from the German original. Where a translation is not yet available, the German text is shown and marked “(German original)”. Names of authorities, laws and companies are given as in the source (company names until they are anonymised).

Company names are anonymised two years after the decision in a case, in line with the practice of many supervisory authorities. The official sources remain linked.

The radar reports on published decisions and is not legal advice. Decisions that are not yet final are marked as such where the status is known.
