CONFIDENTIAL REPORTING/
WHISTLEBLOWING HOTLINE

Does your organization have a dedicated channel for intaking complaints regarding potential violations of internal policies and procedures or external laws?

A confidential reporting line, also known as a whistleblower hotline or ethics hotline, is a mechanism established by organizations to allow employees, stakeholders, and other individuals to report concerns, complaints, or suspicions of misconduct or unethical behavior. It provides a secure and anonymous way for individuals to raise issues without fear of retaliation.
