9 Sep 2024 a US software providerSEC: US software provider pays 692,250 US dollars over waivers of whistleblower awards €626,868
The provider of property management software had employees waive potential awards for reports to authorities in two employment agreements and one settlement agreement; 68 consulting agreements (January 2020 to October 2023) prohibited voluntary disclosures to authorities. As part of a sweep against seven listed companies, the provider paid 692,250 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.
