Today, I am reaching out to share concerns about how whistleblowers are protected at JSI; about whether transparency and due process are appropriately prioritized within JSI’s HR and Compliance departments; and whether appropriate governance and oversight mechanisms exist at JSI to ensure that actions by senior leaders reflect the organization’s values.

If you see a mistake; feel that I’ve voiced an unfair or harmful opinion; or have any general concerns about what I have shared, please reach out.

Just like healthcare or education, employee rights are of no value unless employees can easily access and enjoy those rights.

JSI offered me approximately $45,000 in continued salary and benefits to sign a separation agreement that would have prevented me from speaking out in the way I have over the past week. That document has been attached to this post.

Given what I have shared above, and in previous posts, I’m concerned that JSI does not have the policies and procedures in place to ensure due process and prevent conflicts of interest when they investigate claims of fraud and misconduct.

I ‘teased’ this in the blog I posted a few hours ago (link in comments), but am just going to share it now. The screenshot below was from a document that a JSI lawyer provided with the note, “you shouldn’t need anything further to evaluate the reasons why JSI decided to part ways with you.”

The events described in my last post took an incredible toll on my mental health, to the point where those closest to me began to worry. Finding out that my complaint had been assigned to one of the people named in my complaint was more than I can handle and, later that week, I went out on medical leave.
