What is a Whistleblower ?
An informant can become a whistleblower if both parties agree future cooperation is beneficial. In such cases, an agreement is signed between WADA and the informant. There is no obligation for the informant to become a whistleblower. However, this status offers additional rights and ensures a higher level of cooperation with WADA’s Intelligence and Investigations Department. Regardless, both statuses provide complete confidentiality.
One of a whistleblower’s primary responsibilities is to maintain strict confidentiality during and after an investigation. Therefore, if a whistleblower goes public, their agreement is terminated, and the whistleblower cannot benefit from any protection or financial assistance from WADA.
