Can I Blow the Whistle Anonymously? | Header Image | McOmber McOmber & Luber

Can I Blow the Whistle Anonymously?

July 23, 2020 by Red Bank Legal

The New Jersey Conscientious Employee Protection Act (CEPA) protects employees who report any illegal and fraudulent activities in the scope of their employment. CEPA prohibits employers from retaliating against employees who report or object to this perceived misconduct.   

Many whistleblowers want to remain anonymous in New Jersey after reporting illegal actions of their employers. Employees who witness illegal or unsafe activity committed by their employer may want to report the activity but fear retaliation by their employer.  CEPA makes this retaliation by their employer unlawful and provides serious consequences for any such retaliation. While courts generally want lawsuits to be transparent to the public and complete anonymity is not always possible, there may be methods to protect your identity in certain circumstances. 

Whistleblower Protections 

Under CEPA and the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (NJLAD), employees who report unsafe or illegal activity in the workplace are protected from discrimination and retaliation. 

The New Jersey Law Against Discrimination (NJLAD) protects employees against employment discrimination based on certain protected classes, including pregnancy discrimination, sexual harassment in the workplace, age discrimination, race discrimination, and more. Employees who feel they have been discriminated against in the workplace may be able to file a lawsuit directly in court, or they may be required to first file a claim with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC). 

It is illegal for an employer to retaliate against an employee who reports workplace harassment or discrimination. 

We are here for you 

If you have reason to believe your employer has violated the law, or you have been the victim of retaliation for speaking up, McOmber McOmber & Luber, P.C. can help you understand your rights and options.
