Leyes de Denunciantes de Arizona: Protecciones y Cómo Denunciar

Actualizaciones

Corrected the Discrimination-retaliation remedies description, which had cited the compensatory-damages/$5,000-$10,000 civil-penalty language from Arizona's voting-rights and public-accommodations enforcement statute; the actual employment-discrimination retaliation remedies under A.R.S. § 41-1481 are an injunction, reinstatement or hiring with back pay, and attorney fees.

Restored A.R.S. 38-532's base $5,000 civil-penalty tier: the $10,000 penalty (plus mandatory dismissal and a government-employment bar) applies only when the retaliation targeted a disclosure specifically about a violation of law, not to mismanagement or waste reports generally.
