22 Oct 2025 Gate GourmetTribunal: Gate Gourmet files no response – £20,000 to whistleblower €23,018
Because Gate Gourmet failed to file a response to the claim despite repeated requests, the Manchester Employment Tribunal found that there had been detriment on grounds of a protected disclosure and in January 2026 awarded £15,000 for loss of earnings and £5,000 for injury to feelings. An application for reconsideration, based on an email inbox that was no longer monitored, was refused.
Correspondence from authorities and courts must go to monitored addresses – missed deadlines turn a defensible claim into a default judgment.

9 Sep 2024 a small US manufacturer of nutrition productsSEC: US nutrition products manufacturer pays 19,500 US dollars over waivers of whistleblower awards €17,658
The manufacturer of nutrition and wellness products had two departing employees waive potential awards for reports to authorities in separation agreements (May 2022 and June 2023). As part of a sweep against seven listed companies, the manufacturer paid 19,500 US dollars; the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) also took into account the company's strained financial situation.
Separation and employment agreements must restrict neither reports to authorities nor the entitlement to whistleblower awards.
