Whistleblower Protections

Whistleblower Information for Employees of Federal Contractors and Grantees 

Employees of a federal contractor, subcontractor, grantee, or subgrantee are protected by law from retaliation for disclosing wrongdoing.  A person holding a personal services contract with a federal agency is also covered by these laws.  However, individuals receiving federal assistance, such as a student loan or social security, are not covered.

A disclosure is protected if it meets two criteria:

UM System Approvals/Audits

Department of Health & Human Services

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is the Cognizant Federal Audit Agency for the University of Maryland.
