Minnesota SF475 modifies whistleblower protections for public employees.

SF475 amends Minnesota Statutes to enhance whistleblower protections for public employees. It prohibits employers from retaliating against employees who report violations of law, refuse unlawful orders, or report health care quality issues. The bill also protects employees who communicate findings of scientific or technical studies and those who report state service-related information to legislators or constitutional officers. The changes ensure public employees can report wrongdoing without fear of retaliation.
