Ethics Hotline available to 91视频 employees

The following message was shared with 91视频 faculty and staff on Monday, Dec. 5, 2022

Dear 91视频 employees,

Promoting a responsible and ethical workplace is everyone鈥檚 responsibility. For more than 16 years, 91视频 has demonstrated its commitment to this principle by contracting with EthicsPoint庐 to provide the 91视频 Ethics Hotline. The hotline can be used to report concerns of fraud, waste, abuse, or non-compliance with regulations or University policies鈥攁nonymously if so desired. This process is managed by the Office of Audit, Risk, and Compliance, and additional information can be found on the Office鈥檚 website

Members of the University community may submit an anonymous report one of two ways: through a toll-free number or through a web-intake process on any computer or mobile device. Reports made to the hotline鈥攙ia phone or website鈥攁re triaged and responded to by anonymous dialogue between the reporter, Audit, Legal Affairs, or the University representative who can most appropriately respond to the concern.

The University encourages employees to report concerns through normal lines of communication, such as to a supervisor or to an office or individual whose responsibility it is to handle such reports. However, when employees are uncomfortable doing so, the hotline offers an alternative for filing concerns anonymously. The University prohibits retaliation against an individual who in good faith reports concerns or provides information about suspected University-related misconduct, whether reported through normal channels or through the hotline. 

If you have concerns about possible fraud, waste, abuse of University assets, or other compliance or regulatory issues, you can file a report from any computer or mobile device on the , or by calling EthicsPoint toll-free at (866) 294-9591. 

While investigations are conducted in a highly confidential manner, it should be noted that records generated during an investigation may be subject to disclosure in accordance with applicable laws, including Ohio鈥檚 Public Records Act. The University is also required by Ohio law to make the University community aware of an additional fraud hotline maintained by the Ohio Auditor of State. This additional hotline resource is available by calling (866) 372-8364. 

Thank you for doing your part in creating an open and ethical culture here at 91视频.
