Similar to a cause of action for wrongful termination in violation of public policy, a prima facie case of retaliation in violation of section 1102.5(b) requires an employee to show that he engaged in protected activity, he was subjected to an adverse employment action, and there was a causal link between the two. (McVeigh v. Recology San Francisco, supra, 213 Cal.App.4th at p. 468.)
