Answer: a. is not protected by the whistleblower statute because she failed to inform the proper party of the contract violation.

Options:

a. is not protected by the whistleblower statute because she failed to inform the proper party of the contract violation.

b. is protected by the whistleblower statute in her state because she spoke up about her employer's actions.

c. will be reinstated to her former job, because when she told the courier of the problem she was merely exercising her first amendment right to free speech.

d. is not protected by the state whistleblower statute. it is inapplicable because the contract was with the federal government.

Explanation: The Whistleblower Protection Act protects employees and applicants of federal agencies or an organization in a contract with the Federal government who provide information about the wrongdoings in their place of work. Such wrongs might be related to abuse of power, illegal actions or mismanagement.

For a whistleblower to be protected from retaliation from their employer such as unlawful dismissal as is the case above they must have experienced the wrongdoing first-hand, disclosed it to the right authority and the person who took an action against the whistleblower must have known about the disclosure.

Erin did not disclose it to the right authority, so she will not be protected by the Act.
