What We Do
Supporting Corporate Governance
Our Whistleblower hotline services are an essential solution for various types of employers but specifically for those with Corporate Governance responsibilities.
In accordance with the Whistleblower Protection Act of 1989, individuals can choose to bring information or allegations forward without the fear of retaliation.
A whistleblower hotline is essentially a channel that employees and other individuals use to alert an organization about any suspicions of misconduct. A channel like this can help managers detect and act quickly to prevent any threat of escalation.
Whistleblower Hotlines Prevent Issues In The Workplace
In 2002, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act required U.S. companies to have a designated channel for whistleblowing. The most common platforms for these were phone and voicemail. Therefore, the term whistleblowing is still used today to describe a solution where employees “blow the whistle” by calling in and reporting their issues.
One of the best features of whistleblower hotlines is that it can prevent issues from occurring in the workplace. For instance, people will think twice about committing an act of fraud, harassment, or other improper practices. Employees have the right to file complaints, and having effective reporting tools helps foster a work environment that reflects integrity and responsibility.
