Hotline Comparison: IntegrityCounts vs. Other Providers

A Whistleblower Hotline Service, or Ethics Hotline Service, is a tool that companies will use to provide employees and other stakeholders with a secure place to report on unethical behaviour. Typically, a Whistleblower Hotline Service will comprise of a toll-free reporting hotline, as well as the ability for employees to use a web-based form to report their concerns.

Reports are immediately collected into a Case Management System where management can log in, view, manage, and investigate each concern. A Case Management System will also provide management and the whistleblower with the opportunity to anonymously communicate with each other, and this helps to build a culture of trust.

When your employees call into a whistleblower hotline, the experience they have during the call, and with the call centre agent, can play a big role in the quality of reports being submitted, as well as the trust the employee has in their employer.

For employees that rely on a human connection, anonymous hotline capabilities are critical to ensuring that the employee feels supported and nurtured when speaking up to report misconduct.
