Whistleblowing at West Dunbartonshire Council (WDC) has been described as “relatively small” for an organisation of its size with just 15 complaints made over a 12 month period.
One allegation made in December last year was that staff from a nursery attended a Christmas party night and mixed with other employees but did not follow Covid-19 guidance. Employees then tested positive and other staff were isolating awaiting test results.
An investigation revealed that the allegations were unfounded as no Covid-19 regulations or guidance were breached by employees on the night out.
