Whistleblower Rights and Protection

Whistleblowers perform an important service for the public and the Social Security Administration (SSA) when they report suspected wrongdoing. All SSA employees, contractors, subcontractors, grantees, subgrantees, and personal services contractors are protected from retaliation for making a protected disclosure. You can submit a report concerning wrongdoing by SSA employees or within SSA programs to SSA OIG.

If you have questions about the information on this web page, or are concerned that you have experienced retaliation for blowing the whistle, you may also contact the Office of the Inspector General’s (OIG) Whistleblower Protection Coordinator for additional information. You may also consult the U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC), or review information on its website, including Your Rights as a Federal Employee and Your Rights as a Whistleblower.
