In the present case, E failed to produce any evidence of a retaliatory
             motive other than temporal proximity, there was no evidence that sup-
             ported a conclusion that the department took the adverse personnel
             actions in retaliation for E’s disclosure rather than for her underlying
             misconduct, and, although the human rights referee observed that the
             department had told E that she ‘‘was [being] punished for the . . . inci-
             dent’’ involving W, this, alone, did not establish retaliatory motive, as it
             was E’s failure to confirm W’s credentials and the potentially improper
             approval of W’s appointment that, in combination with additional
             instances of deficient work performance, led to the adverse personnel
             actions.
