    Background:

    • Whistleblowing is crucial for patient safety and healthcare quality.
    • Understanding barriers to whistleblowing is essential for improving reporting systems.
    • Existing research indicates potential ethnic disparities in workplace experiences.

    • To identify factors influencing whistleblowing behavior across diverse ethnic groups.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of survey data from a representative sample of healthcare professionals.
    • Statistical comparison of whistleblowing rates between different ethnic groups (Asian, black, white British).
    • Exploration of potential mediating factors such as workplace culture and discrimination.

    Main Results:

    • Asian and black healthcare staff reported significantly lower rates of whistleblowing compared to their white British counterparts.
    • The disparity remained significant after controlling for demographic and professional variables.
    • Preliminary analysis suggests workplace environment and perceived discrimination may play a role.

    Conclusions:

    • Ethnic minority healthcare staff face greater barriers to whistleblowing.
    • Addressing systemic issues is necessary to ensure equitable reporting environments.
    • Further research is needed to explore interventions to promote inclusive whistleblowing practices.
