Ethics, Whistleblowing, & Corporate Compliance

Whistleblowing is the deliberate revelation of information regarding alleged wrongdoing. The alleged wrongdoing often occurs in an organization or governmental agency and can include violations of company or government policy, fraud, corruption or even threats to public safety. In this course, we will look at the act of whistleblowing through the lens of an ethicist. We will study and discuss the laws regarding whistleblowing, recent whistleblower revelations and the competing interests and loyalties for all stakeholders. In addition, we will investigate broader issues including combatting corruption and promoting business integrity, while using corporate compliance mechanisms to assist in the prevention and detections of breaches of ethical norms and violations of laws and regulations.
