The CMA is a listed organisation included in the Prescribed Persons Order 2014, which provides the statutory framework for protecting persons from harm if they report on any wrongdoing involving their employer. The process by which a person may make this report is referred to as “making a disclosure” or “whistleblowing”.
To be covered by whistleblowing law, the disclosure must be a ‘qualifying disclosure’. This is any disclosure of information which, in the reasonable belief of the worker making the disclosure, is made in the public interest and tends to show that one or more of the following has occurred, is occurring or is likely to occur:

OSHA administers 23 whistleblower statutes. The agency has an online complaint that gathers information about adverse actions, potential reasons for adverse actions, dates of adverse actions, and establishment identifying information including location, and contact information. All is included in a database and supplemented by complaint information that is collected by other means, and data that is collected during investigations. The additional data gathered from the public includes greater depth on allegations, type of complaint, and in some cases -- appeals. The Privacy Act controls much of what is released to the public, and the agency also follows a system of records notice, which leads to the aggregation of data on docketed cases and complaint determinations by statute, which are released to the public.
Between 2015 and 2023, the number of whistleblowing complaints registered in Italy by ANAC significantly increased. Acronym for National Anti-Corruption Authority, ANAC collects reports of irregularities and corruption cases within the public administration. It was established by the Italian government in 2014. As of 2015, 125 cases were recorded nationwide. In 2023, the Authority received 786 notifications by whistleblowers, recording a recovery after the drop during the pandemic years. In 2020, whistleblowing complaints were recorded mainly in the southern regions.
In 2020, discriminatory measures adopted by the administration or the authority were the most common irregularities exposed by whistleblowers within the Italian public administration. In fact, ANAC, the National Anti-Corruption Authority, reported that such complaints accounted for 23.5 percent of the total. Furthermore, corruption, maladministration, and misuse of power accounted for 19.5 percent of whistleblowing cases, the second most denounced incorrect behavior. In 2023, 786 whistleblowing complaints were made in Italy.
This statistic shows what financial service industry employees and board members believe to be the primary purposes of whistleblowing programs in the UK. Both employees and the board share the idea that the most important primary purpose for the new whistleblowing program is to promote an ethical organizational culture with 47 percent of employees and 52 percent of board members agreeing with this statement.
This statistic shows the level as to which financial companies have implemented changes due to the new whistleblower programs in the UK according to a survey conducted in 2016. The statistic shows that 65 percent of respondent companies already complied to the program but have since made additional changes to further improve their program. Only 2 percent answered that their company did not have such a program in place yet but are implementing one now.
This statistic depicts the share of main impediments of institutions for implementing a whistle blowing program against financial crimes in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) in 2018. During the survey period, 12.84 percent of respondents replied that lack of awareness of the need made it difficult to employ the program.

The datasets consist of quantitative data from 21,937 higher education students from 18 institutions in Nigeria. It also contains 3,108 data points from staff of the same institutions. The data describe the intention of the staff and the students to use internal whistleblowing mechanisms to report sexual violence cases. Data on the attitude of the participants towards internal whistleblowing, their subjective norms, and their self-efficacy are also contained in the datasets. The qualitative data describe the sexual violence reporting systems available in the institutions, their preferred whistleblowing strategies, the protection of whistleblowers, and recommendations for the effectiveness of internal whistleblowing mechanisms for sexual violence. However, due to the sensitivity of the data, the qualitative dataset will only be made available on request. Added to these datasets are the instruments that were used to collect data from the participants.

In 2020, the number of whistleblowing complaints registered in Italy by ANAC amounted to 622. ANAC is the National Anti-Corruption Authority and it collects reports of irregularities within the public administration. That year, almost half of the cases of whistleblowing (46 percent) were reported in the South. By contrast, 21 percent of irregularities were registered in the Center, the lowest percentage nationwide.

Abstract:We study secure survey designs in organizational settings where fear of retaliation makes it hard to elicit the truth. Theory predicts that: (i) randomized-response techniques offer no improvement, because they are strategically equivalent to direct elicitation, (ii) exogenously distorting survey responses (hard-garbling) can improve information transmission, and (iii) the impact of survey design on reporting can be estimated in equilibrium. Laboratory experiments confirm that hard garbling outperforms direct elicitation, but randomized response works better than expected. False accusations slightly, but persistently bias treatment effect estimates. Additional experiments reveal that play converges to equilibrium if learning from others' experience is possible.Data and code accompanying the article:All data used in the article were generated in the course of conducting laboratoryexperiments at the University of Lausanne. All subjects were undergraduate students recruited from the University of Lausanne (UNIL), the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Lausanne (EPFL) or the Swiss Hotel Management School (EHL) using the ORSEE system (Greiner, 2015). Each subject participated in one session only. All interactions of participants were completely anonymous. The experiment was programmed and conducted with z-Tree (Fischbacher, 2007).The data was collected in two waves. Our main analysis is conducted on a first wave of data -- referred to as the original treatments -- collected from March to May 2015. We conducted 6 sessions for each treatment. A second wave of data collection -- referred to as the social learning treatments -- was collected between October and November 2015. We conducted again 6 sessions per treatment. Overall we conducted 36 sessions with a total of 720 participants. Each session lasted approximately 90 minutes and subjects earned on average about 37 Swiss Francs (including a show-up fee of 10 Swiss Francs).This deposit provides the data and code to reproduce all results (Figures, Tables and numbers reported in text) of our article. In addition, we also provide the instructions for participants and the code to run the experiment.
In 2002, President George W. Bush signed the Notification and Federal Employee Anti-discrimination and Retaliation Act, Public Law 107-174, Title I, General Provisions, Section 101(1), requires each federal agency to provide written notification of the rights and protections available to federal employees, former federal employees and applicants for federal employment under federal antidiscrimination and whistleblower laws listed in the No FEAR Act. The No FEAR Act increases the accountability of federal departments and agencies for acts of discrimination or reprisal against employees.rnrnThe No FEAR Act requires that federal agencies be accountable for violations of anti-discrimination and whistleblower protection laws. To comply with Title III of the No FEAR Act, FEMA must, among other requirements, post a summary of the statistical data relating to the Equal Employment Opportunity complaints filed with the agency. This data is updated on this website quarterly.rnrnFor further information regarding the No FEAR Act regulations, refer to 5 CFR Part 724, as well as the DHS Office for Civil Rights and Civil Liberties. Additional information regarding federal antidiscrimination, whistleblower protection and retaliation laws can be found at www.eeoc.gov and www.osc.gov.
