Examples of whistleblowing

Breach of a legal obligation

For example, an employer has neglected their reporting obligations under the Money Laundering Order (Jersey) 2008, by encouraging the money laundering reporting officer to not file suspicious activity reports.

Miscarriage of justice

For example, a member of staff has been fired for something that turned out to be a computer error.

A company or person carrying out unauthorised business in Jersey

For example, a business does not have the correct licences to carry out certain business.

A company or person is not meeting regulatory requirements

For example, a company or business does not meet requirements in the relevant codes of practice.
