what is the reasoning behind limiting the Sarbanes-Oxley Act\'s protections to public employees?

Solution

Sarbanes oxkey act is about giving protection to whistle blower in an organisation. It is limited to public employees because in case of contract employees the scope of whistle blowing is difficult to define properly and there are chances high that contract employees may create false representation against the other employees on vested interest or to defame them. Thus the act doesn\'t include certain levels of contract employees as they doesn\'t belongs to the permanent employee category
