We prohibit retaliation for:
- Refusing to do something that violates the Trust Code, Microsoft’s policies, or the law, even if your refusal results in the loss of business to Microsoft.
- Raising a concern in good faith about potential misconduct.
- Cooperating with an investigation.
Our policies make anyone who retaliates against an employee for engaging in any of these activities subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination.
