Protection of employees; retaliatory action against employee prohibited. Prohibits an employer from taking certain retaliatory actions against an employee because the employee or a person acting on the employee's behalf reports any information or allegation in good faith that, if true, amounts to a violation of any federal or state law or regulation to a supervisor, manager, officer, or other employee, or to any governmental body or law-enforcement official, including a report made in the ordinary course of the employee's employment, regardless of whether such report refers to a particular law or regulation. The bill prohibits an employer from (i) taking any action or including any policy in an employee handbook, employment contract, or separation agreement that impedes an employee from disclosing possible or actual illegal activity to the public, a governmental body, or his employer or (ii) taking any disciplinary action in retaliation against an employee for reporting to the public, a governmental body, or his employer any possible or actual violation of any federal or state law or regulation.
