From the "Snowden Effect" to multi-million dollar bounties, whistleblowing is bigger, badder and broader than ever before. Inquiring employers want to know – are the courts and enforcement agencies going to pull the brake on this runaway train? Find out in this program covering the most important recent cases and developments in whistleblowing and retaliation litigation, including:

  • The U.S. Supreme Court's first Sarbanes-Oxley case and what it might mean for the millions of privately held companies that do business with publicly traded corporations
  • A widening split of authority on the question "who is a whistleblower?" under Dodd-Frank
  • Dramatic expansions in the definition of "protected activity"
  • The real and potential impact of the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Nassar to apply a narrow standard of causation in Title VII retaliation cases
  • New whistleblower protections under the Affordable Care Act – is this the next big thing?
  • How to set up and foster a culture of ethics and compliance
