EthicsPoint Enterprise Lite Incident Management
Enhance Incident Report Intake and Investigation
When employees come forward to report workplace misconduct, they are providing their organization with critical pieces of business intelligence.
According to the NAVEX Global 2016 Benchmark report on hotline and incident management, 40 percent of employees who witness misconduct never report it. Employees hesitate on reporting for a variety of reasons, most frequently due to fear of retaliation or cynicism that their report will not be taken seriously. So when employees do speak up, organizations need to respond proactively, ensure that each case is investigated fully, and advocate for a speak-up culture that encourages future reporters to come forward.
Addressing employee reports and incidents in a consistent and documented manner can reduce risk to your organization and help create a culture of trust and respect. Employees can raise their concerns confidentially and, if needed, anonymously. They can rest assured their requests will be handled and resolved in a consistent and fair process. Managers and leadership know that all the data is stored in one central repository and can report on the data easily and effectively to improve organizational policies and outcomes in a timely and efficient manner.
