The don't be a tattle-tale attitude is only one of the problems that works against whistle-blowing. Others are as follows:
Retribution. People who blow the whistle on their employer may be subjected to retribution. They may be fired, transferred to an undesirable location, or reassigned to an undesirable job. They may also be shunned. There are numerous wayslegal waysfor an employer to take retribution against a whistle-blower.
Damaged relationships and hostility. Blowing the whistle about an illegal or unethical practice can often damage relationships. Somebodyby commission or omissionis responsible. That person or those persons may be disciplined as a result. When this happens, people tend to choose sides which, in turn, leads to damaged relationships. Damaged relationships are often manifested in the form of hostility directed toward the whistle-blower.
Loss of focus. Whistle-blowers often find that their time, energy, and attention are overtaken by the events surrounding the claim of illegal or unethical behavior. Rather than focusing on doing their jobs, they find themselves dealing with retribution, damaged relationships, and hostility.
