A quick definition of whistleblower act:

Whistleblower Act: This is a law that helps protect workers who report bad things their bosses are doing. If an employee has a good reason to believe their employer is doing something wrong, they can report it without fear of getting in trouble. This law helps make sure that people who speak up about bad things happening at work are not punished for doing the right thing.

A more thorough explanation:

The Whistleblower Act is a law that protects employees from being punished or retaliated against by their employers when they report any wrongdoing. This law is in place to encourage employees to speak up about any illegal or unethical activities that they may witness in their workplace.

For example, if an employee notices that their company is engaging in fraudulent activities, they can report it to the authorities without fear of losing their job or being demoted. The Whistleblower Act protects them from any retaliation that their employer may try to take against them.

Another example could be an employee who reports sexual harassment in the workplace. The Whistleblower Act would protect them from any negative consequences that may result from reporting the harassment.

Overall, the Whistleblower Act is an important law that helps to ensure that employees feel safe and protected when reporting any illegal or unethical activities in their workplace.
