DOCKET NO. WW-2026 · U.S. WHISTLEBLOWER-RETALIATION RECORD · OPEN TO THE PUBLIC

How does this company treat the people who speak up? Now you can just look.

The answer is already sitting in OSHA determinations, SEC whistleblower orders, NLRB decisions, and court filings. It's public. It's just scattered where nobody reads it. We want to file it into one page per company, with the company's own reply beside it, so you can check before you sign instead of finding out the hard way. This page is where you tell us it's worth building.

NOTICE TO THE READER

WhistleWatch is a proposal, not yet a product. If built, it won't investigate or allege: it will re-organize records that agencies and courts already publish, label every entry by its legal stage (alleged, settled, or adjudicated), and give every company a free, verified right of reply on the same page.

Why this matters

EXHIBIT A-1
3,169 filed
Whistleblower retaliation complaints filed with OSHA in a single year, across 25 statutes. Public, but scattered across regional determination letters.
SOURCE: OSHA WHISTLEBLOWER PROTECTION PROGRAM
EXHIBIT A-2
18,354 tips
Tips to the SEC whistleblower office in one record year. The award orders naming the covered conduct are published; almost nobody reads them.
SOURCE: SEC OWB ANNUAL REPORT TO CONGRESS
EXHIBIT A-3
< 2%
Of OSHA retaliation complaints end in a merit finding. Most of this record is allegation, not verdict, which is exactly why we stamp every entry with its legal stage.

Procedure · How a dossier is filed
FILED 2026

Name a company. Get everything the public record says about it, as one stamped docket.

Four passes would turn scattered agency and court records into a timeline you can read in five minutes, with every entry linked to the document it came from. This is the procedure we'd build.

01

Collect

Pull published OSHA determinations, SEC and NLRB orders, federal court filings, and established reporting from their scattered public homes.

OSHA · SEC OWB · NLRB · PACER
02

File

Match each record to the company and order it into a case timeline: complaint, finding, outcome. Every entry links to its source document.

ONE DOCKET PER COMPANY
03

Stamp

Label every entry by its legal stage: alleged, settled with no admission, or adjudicated. Nothing appears without a stamp. A lawsuit is a claim, not a finding.

ALLEGED · SETTLED · ADJUDICATED
04

Invite reply

The company gets a free, domain-verified reply panel pinned beside its record: context, remediation, outcomes. Shown unedited. Engaging improves its signal.

RIGHT OF REPLY · FREE · VERIFIED
EXHIBIT B
PLAIN-LANGUAGE READOUT

The Conduct Signal

One readable number for how a company's docket reads, built from adjudicated findings, its settlement pattern, how often cases recur, how transparent it has been, and whether it engaged its right of reply. It reads the record, not the rumor. A company with a clean docket scores clear, and replying improves the signal.

EXHIBIT C

Company dossiers

One page per company: its whistleblower and retaliation record across every agency, in plain language, every entry linked to the original document.

EXHIBIT D

Stamped case timelines

Complaint → finding → outcome, in order, each step stamped with its legal stage. You always know whether you're reading a claim or a verdict.

EXHIBIT E

Right-of-reply panel

Every company can post its side (context, remediation steps, outcomes) free, domain-verified, and shown unedited beside its record. A well-handled case reads very differently.

EXHIBIT F

Sector heatmap

Where retaliation findings cluster by industry, statute, and year, so a pattern in one company can be read against its whole sector.

Parties of interest
FILED 2026

Built for the person weighing an offer, and the company with a record to explain.

PARTY OF THE FIRST PART · JOB SEEKERS & EMPLOYEES

Read the docket before you sign.

Five minutes on a dossier tells you what happened to the last person who raised a concern, before you're the one raising it.

  • Check any company's record before an offer, free, no account
  • See stage stamps, so a claim never masquerades as a verdict
  • Follow every entry to the agency or court document itself
PARTY OF THE SECOND PART · COMPANIES

Your side, on the record, free.

Verify your domain and post context, remediation steps, and outcomes beside your record. A well-handled case with a reply on file reads very differently, and we show it that way.

  • Free, verified right of reply, never edited, never paywalled
  • Reply engagement improves your Conduct Signal
  • A clean docket shows as exactly that: clean
Record of authorities
FILED 2026

No secret data: public records, filed together for the first time.

Everything WhistleWatch would show you is already published by agencies, courts, and established newsrooms. The work is in the filing, not the finding, and it hasn't been done yet. Here's the plan, staged honestly: three sources at launch, three on the roadmap.

OSHA WPP AT LAUNCH
Whistleblower retaliation determinations across 25 federal statutes.
PUBLISHED BY: U.S. DEPT. OF LABOR
SEC OWB AT LAUNCH
Whistleblower award orders and the covered enforcement actions behind them.

NLRB AT LAUNCH
Unfair labor practice decisions, including retaliation for protected activity.

FEDERAL COURTS COMING SOON
Dockets and filings in retaliation and wrongful-termination suits.
PUBLISHED VIA: PACER / COURTLISTENER
EEOC COMING SOON
Retaliation litigation, settlements, and consent decrees.
PUBLISHED BY: EEOC
ESTABLISHED REPORTING COMING SOON
Published journalism, always linked and never the sole source for a factual claim.
LINKED TO ORIGINAL OUTLET

We re-organize, not allege

WhistleWatch rearranges published records into a readable docket. It doesn't investigate, editorialize, or accuse anyone. The record speaks; we file it.

Every entry is stamped and sourced

Each entry carries its legal stage (alleged, settled, or adjudicated) and links to the exact document it came from. If it can't be traced to a public record, it isn't on WhistleWatch.

Right of reply is free and verified

Every company can put its side on the same page: domain-verified, never edited, never paywalled. Corrections are public, and engagement improves a company's signal.

Questions presented
FILED 2026

Fair questions.

Isn't this defamation? +

No. Every statement on WhistleWatch is a quotation or plain-language restatement of a record an agency, a court, or an established newsroom already published, stamped with its legal stage and linked to the source. We publish the record; we don't add conclusions of our own. And every company can put its side on the same page, free.

Is this a blacklist of companies? +

No. Fewer than 2% of OSHA retaliation complaints end in a merit finding. Most of the record is allegation, and our stamps make that unmissable. A claim is shown as a claim, a verdict as a verdict, a clean docket as clean. Companies that engage their right of reply improve their signal.

How does a company respond? +

Verify your domain, then post your reply: context, remediation steps, outcomes. It's free, it's pinned beside your record, and we never edit it. There's also a public correction process if a record is misattributed or superseded.

Where does the data come from? +

OSHA whistleblower determinations, SEC whistleblower award orders, NLRB decisions, federal court dockets, EEOC litigation, and established published reporting. Every entry links to its original document. We add no secret data.

Is it really free? What's the catch? +

Free for everyone, readers and companies alike, with no account, no card, and no payments of any kind. There is nothing to buy and nothing to donate to. The only thing this site collects is the interest list, which exists to answer one question: should this get built?

Does this exist yet? +

Not yet; that's the point of this page. The records are real and already public, but nobody has filed them into one place. The demo shows how a dossier would read, built from published cases and a labeled composite. If enough people sign up, we build it, starting with OSHA, SEC, and NLRB sources, with courts, EEOC, and press coverage on the roadmap.

What about cases still in progress? +

They're stamped ALLEGED and carry an explicit "no adjudication yet" banner. A lawsuit is a claim someone filed, not a finding; the stamp keeps that distinction in front of you on every entry, and the dossier updates as the case moves.

Filing · Notice of interest
NO FEE REQUIRED

Built only if people want it.

WhistleWatch doesn't exist yet; this page is how we find out whether it should. No payments, no donations, no card, ever. If enough people say "I'd check this before my next offer," we build it, free and open, and you're the first to know your company is on file.

The interest list is the only thing this site collects. If the docket stays quiet, nothing gets built and your email dies with it.
