FIRING FOR WHISTLE-BLOWING IS ILLEGAL: CALL SF EMPLOYMENT LAWYERS IF YOU HAVE BEEN A VICTIM OF WRONGFUL TERMINATION

Whistle-blowing‘ is when an employee reports an employer who is breaking the law to an agency or law enforcement. Employees who report their boss’ illegal behavior are protected by the law, and their employer may not fire them for their actions. If they are fired, they may be able to bring a suit against their employer.

Recently, a former CEO of an electricity provider in Texas brought a suit alleging wrongful termination against Fulcrum Power. The former CEO was Javier Vega. He claimed that he tried to blow the whistle on the company for ignoring state regulators and attempting to overcharge customers to save the company. The company denies the allegations.
