Become certified in whistleblowing procedure and policy awareness today and enrol on our Whistleblowing training course. It covers the below questions in more depth!

What is whistleblowing?

Whistleblowing is the reporting of wrongdoing. This includes criminal offences (e.g. fraud), threats to somebody's health and safety, miscarriages of justice, or if the organisation is breaking the law.

Situations such as workplace bullying or harassment are not covered under whistleblowing law. Instead, see our Bullying and Harassment awareness course.

What is whistleblowing in care?

Whistleblowing in health and social care also refers to the reporting of malpractice, wrongdoing or illegal actions.

In care, concerns for the safety of patients and others who use healthcare services, including staff, are often the reason for a whistleblower to make a complaint.

Whistleblowers should make disclosures to a 'prescribed body', such as the Care Quality Commission (CQC), in the event that their own employer's whistleblower policy has not dealt with the complaint.

Staff working for the NHS can report through NHS Improvement (the NHS whistleblowing policy) or the National Whistleblowing Helpline.

Malicious or knowingly untrue concerns raised by an employee in order to harm others can lead to disciplinary action.

This Whistleblowing course covers whistleblower law so learners are aware of their rights.
