Social Security Administration Issues New Whistleblower Rights and Protections Policy

Thursday, November 12, 2026 · Federal · GSM News

The U.S. Social Security Administration (SSA) said on November 12 that it updated its program policy instructions on November 10, publishing a new Program Operations Manual System entry, GN 04113, Basic - Whistleblower Rights and Protections.

SSA said the new whistleblower policy, issued by Program Integrity, Risk, and Fraud Prevention, sits in the Violations/Fraud chapter of its instructions alongside Reporting Program Violations (GN 04111) and Reporting Employee Violations (GN 04112). Those two published instructions touch on confidential and anonymous reporting; the new entry provides general guidance related to whistleblower rights and protections.
