판정 결과
기자는 공익신고자 신상 공개 보도로 불법행위를 저질렀으며, 근로자에게 위자료 250만 원을 지급해야 합니다.
핵심 쟁점
근로자가 부정수급을 신고(공익신고)한 후 기자가 언론에 근로자의 신원을 특정할 수 있게 보도한 행위가 공익신고자 보호법 위반인지, 위자료 청구가 타당한지 여부였습니다.
판정 근거
공익신고자 보호법은 신고자의 인적사항이나 신고자임을 알 수 있는 사실을 공개·보도하지 못하도록 규정합니다. 기자는 '민원을 넣은 요양보호사 E씨'로 표현해 신원을 특정 가능하게 보도했으며, 이는 실제로 공익신고자보호법 위반으로 벌금형을 받았습니다. 법원은 이러한 불법행위로 근로자가 입은 정신적 손해를 인정하여 위자료를 산정했습니다.
