Book excerpt: As demands for service grow while resources shrink, Federal agencies must examine every aspect of their operations in order to achieve new heights of efficiency and effectiveness. Agency management cannot accomplish this goal alone--every employee also plays or should play a role. In this regard, Federal employees have long been encouraged to 'blow the whistle' on illegal or wasteful activities in the Government and offered protection against reprisal for doing so. The data discussed in this report are based largely on responses to a recent MSPB survey received from over 13,000 employees. The results show that some progress has been made toward the goal of encouraging employees to report illegal or wasteful activities, Unfortunately, the percentage of employees who claimed they had been the victims of reprisal because of their disclosures has also increased. The report concludes with recommendations for improvement. Federal Government, Whistleblowing.

Download or read book An Examination of the Retaliation Process Against Whistleblowers written by Michael T. Rehg and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite federal legislation protecting whistle-blowers, surveys of federal employees have shown an increasing trend in retaliation against whistle- blowers. Past research has shown that employees who did not get the support of supervisors and management and who reported wrongdoing to external channels were especially likely to suffer retaliation. Three surveys conducted by the United States Merit Systems Protection Board of thousands of federal government employees were used to examine whistle-blowing and retaliation trends across time, and to establish a baseline of significant predictor variables of retaliation in general. Then, retaliation was examined in more detail, dividing it into formal and informal responses organizations take against whistle-blowers to determine if different predictors and effects were associated with each type of retaliation. These categories reflect the social and bureaucratic means of control that are present in organizations. Significant changes from 1980 to 1992 included a decrease in the observance of wrongdoing, an increase in the amount of whistle-blowing, a decrease in the amount of identified whistle-blowing and an increase in the amount of retaliation against identified whistle-blowers. Supervisor lack of support and management lack of support were consistently related to an increase in the amount of retaliation suffered by identified whistle-blowers. Somewhat different results were evident when retaliation was split into informal and formal types. Informal retaliation was associated with both coworker lack of support and management lack of support, while formal retaliation was associated with management lack of support and most recent performance appraisal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “brisk and interesting” exploration of exposing misconduct in America—from the Revolutionary War era to the Trump years (Jill Lepore, The New Yorker). PROSE Award winner in the Government, Policy and Politics category Misconduct by those in high places is always dangerous to reveal. Whistleblowers thus face conflicting impulses: by challenging and exposing transgressions by the powerful, they perform a vital public service—yet they always suffer for it. This episodic history brings to light how whistleblowing, an important but unrecognized cousin of civil disobedience, has held powerful elites accountable in America. Analyzing a range of whistleblowing episodes, from the corrupt Revolutionary War commodore Esek Hopkins (whose dismissal led in 1778 to the first whistleblower protection law) to Edward Snowden, to the dishonesty of Donald Trump, Allison Stanger reveals the centrality of whistleblowing to the health of American democracy. She also shows that with changing technology and increasing militarization, the exposure of misconduct has grown more difficult to do and more personally costly for those who do it—yet American freedom, especially today, depends on it. “A stunningly original, deeply insightful, and compelling analysis of the profound conflicts we have faced over whistleblowing, national security, and democracy from our nation's founding to the Age of Trump.” —Geoffrey R. Stone, award–awinning author of Perilous Times “This clear-eyed, sobering book narrates a history of whistle-blowing, from the American Revolution to Snowden to Comey, and delivers the verdict that the republic is at risk—a must read.” —Danielle Allen, award-winning author of Our Declaration
