Case: Individual Employment Rights/Whistleblowing (Mass.)

The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court affirmed the denial of Roxbury Community College’s motion for summary judgment on a whistleblower retaliation claim under the state whistleblower act, brought by the director of facilities and public safety, holding that the director engaged in protected activity as a matter of law when he objected to the college’s failure to report sexual assault allegations as required by a federal law, despite his own involvement in and responsibility for such reporting.
