If you report something, are you protected from being penalised for it? Under the law you are protected as a safety 'whistleblower' if there has been:
- a criminal offence
- a breach of a legal obligation
- a miscarriage of justice
- a danger to the health and safety of any individual
- damage to the environment
- deliberate covering up of information about any of these
- Protection of whistleblowers
- Employers' health and safety responsibilities
