Services Hotline

Hotline

The Hotline service gives employees, partners, clients, customers, and others a safe outlet to report criminal, ethical or compliance violations observed or personally experienced.

It further provides employers with an incident management reporting system that helps guides policies and procedures.

Employee wrongdoing and workplace violence may not be commonplace, but they do happen. Preparation and investment in prevention now may save a life, money, reputation, and in some cases a company or organization. The likelihood of a successful resolution is much greater if signs of problems are identified early on.

Each call is coded by importance. When immediate action is required, designated company personnel will be notified and appropriate action will be carried out as needed and agreed upon.

The many advantage of subscribing to CORIE's hotline services are:

  • Provides an independent and confidential venue to report concerns, crimes, or potential ethics violations.
  • Shows commitment to provide a safe work environment
  • Employees can report information without concerns of being identified
  • Operators are trained to filter calls to determine the best next step
  • When a return call is requested by the caller, CORIE's investigators will make the initial call to determine if further steps are needed
  • CORIE investigators are involved from inception to completion providing continuity, which will expedite the process to a solution
