Wells Fargo's case
WASHINGTON, Jan. 7 /PRNewswire/ -- Daniel Fisher has filed a lawsuit in the Northern District of California to enforce a U.S. Department of Labor Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) order requiring Wells Fargo to reinstate him to his former position at Wells Fargo's Cupertino branch. After conducting a thorough investigation of Mr. Fisher's Sarbanes-Oxley whistleblower retaliation claim, OSHA issued its findings on November 26, 2008, concluding that Wells Fargo violated Section 806 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act by retaliating against Fisher because he disclosed that his co-worker was steering customers from CDs and savings accounts to unsuitable mutual funds. In addition, OSHA ordered Wells Fargo to reinstate Fisher, pay him compensatory damages, and post a notice to employees in a conspicuous place committing not to engage in further retaliation.
