S.C. Code Regs. § § 71-1011
Current through Register Vol. 48, 12, December 27, 2024
Discharge of, or discrimination against, any employee because the employee has "testified, or is about to testify" in proceedings under or relating to the Act is also prohibited by Section 41-15-510. This protection would, of course, not be limited to testimony in proceedings instituted or caused to be instituted by the employee, but would extend to any statements given in the course of judicial, quasi-judicial, and administrative proceedings, including inspections, investigations, and administrative rule making or adjudicative functions. If the employee is giving or is about to give testimony in any proceeding under or relating to the Act, he would be protected against discrimination resulting from such testimony.
