Any notice shall be in writing, shall set forth the specific grounds for the notice, and shall be signed by the worker or representative of the workers. A copy shall be provided to the licensee or registrant by the department no later than at the time of investigation except that, upon the request of the worker giving notice, his or her name and the name of individuals referred to therein shall not appear in such copy or on any record published, released, or made available by the department, except for good cause shown.
(2) If, upon receipt of notice, the department determines that the complaint meets the requirements in subrule (1) of this rule and that there are reasonable grounds to believe that the alleged violations exists or has occurred, the department shall investigate as soon as practicable, to determine if such alleged violation exists or has occurred. An investigation pursuant to this rule need not be limited to matters referred to in the complaint.
(3) A licensee or registrant shall not discharge or in any manner discriminate against a worker because a worker has filed a complaint or instituted or caused to be instituted any proceeding under these rules or has testified, or is about to testify, in any proceeding or because of the exercise by a worker on behalf of himself or herself or others of any option afforded by this part.
