Public Health Service Standards for the Protection of Research Misconduct Whistleblowers

Короткий зміст

The Department proposes to add a new Subchapter I, Part 94, to Title 42 of the Code of Federal Regulations to implement section 493(e) of the Public Health Service Act. Under this proposed regulation, covered institutions must follow certain requirements for preventing or otherwise responding to occurrences of retaliation against whistleblowers. The purpose of this part is to protect persons who make a good faith allegation that a covered institution or one of its members engaged in or failed to respond adequately to an allegation of research misconduct and persons who cooperate in good faith with an investigation of research misconduct.
