Overview: Some of these provisions include protections for employees, new and increased individual penalties, and employment benefits regulation. All these provisions have been discussed in detail. Congress passed the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 hurriedly, and some of the statutory language reflects this fact. In light of the current political climate, employers should understand the new whistleblower protections, increased criminal and other penalties, and employment benefits changes, and act accordingly. The SEC, the courts and regulators will have to sort out some of the broad and/or ambiguous language in the Act, including the provisions affecting the employment relationship discussed in this Article.
