Whistleblowing protection


The doctors’ trade union and professional association, the British Medical Association, has secured an important agreement with Health Education England (HEE) to provide junior doctors in England with legal protection in the event that they are subjected to a detriment by HEE for whistleblowing. 


The agreement also affords protection to dentists in training as a result of the involvement in discussions of the British Dental Association, the dentists’ union and professional association.
