What Evidence do I Need to Prove My Appeal?
In any whistleblower appeal, you will have the burden of proving by a “preponderance of the evidence” that your whistleblowing activity was a contributing factor in the personnel action threatened or taken against you. One example of how you might prove this is to show that the official taking the personnel action knew about the whistleblowing and acted against you during a reasonable time that would suggest reactionary retaliation. Your employer might combat your accusations by saying they would have taken the same personnel action even if you did not engage in whistleblowing, but the standard of proof for them will be higher. You will also be required to show that you already approached the OSC.
