DFS Whistleblower Guidance: Advice and a Warning Shot

In this Employment Issues column, Philip M. Berkowitz and Margaret Watson write: At the end of the day, again, the Guidance is sound. But it is issued on facts that demonstrate that what are suggestions today may turn into minimum requirements tomorrow. The warning shot has been fired, and employers, whether in financial services or otherwise, would do well to review and conform policies in this area.
