According to a ruling by a US court in a lawsuit brought by a foreign worker against their employer for retaliation, the anti-retaliation statute for whistleblowers comes into effect only when the employee works in the US. Foreign employees have no redress if they are terminated for whistleblowing, even if the employer has significant dealings in the US i.e. sells to companies based in the US.
