It can be difficult for an employee to come forward and report wrongdoing on the part of an employer. Some employers retaliate, or even fire, employees for “blowing the whistle.” Fortunately, under New Hampshire law, employees who expose such wrongdoing are protected from retaliation. This is known as the Whistleblower Protection Act.

Protection Under New Hampshire’s Whistleblower
Protection Act.

An employer is prohibited from discharging, threatening, or otherwise discriminating against any employee regarding the employee’s compensation, terms, conditions, location or privileges of employment because the employee engaged in protected activity.

The protected activity includes:

• The employee reports what the employee believes is a violation of any law or rule or

• Participates in an investigation or hearing conducted by any governmental entity or court concerning
allegations that the employer violated any law or rule or

• The employee refuses a directive by an employer which violates any law or rule.
