Compliance and Ethics Hotline
Through the services of Compliance Concepts Inc. (CCI), the Penn State Hershey community can report concerns related to financial, human resources, research and affirmative action issues. Such reports can be filed anonymously. Concerns can be reported 24 hours a day, seven days a week to CCI via telephone (1-800-560-1637) or online at www.mycompliancereport.com/brand/hmc .
The use of CCI's services allows for the anonymity of the individual reporting the concerns, while at the same time allows the pertinent details of the concern to be fully investigated by the Penn State Hershey and corrective action to be taken if needed. Phone calls to the hotline are received by trained CCI personnel. Individuals making reports, whether via phone or online, are assigned a unique code that will allow them to follow up to determine the outcome of their concern or to provide additional information if they choose to do so. Notifications of reports received by CCI are sent to the Compliance and Internal Audit Department (C/IAD) for review. This system also allows for C/IAD personnel investigating the concern to ask questions of the person making the report. All reports are thoroughly investigated until there is a final resolution and resolutions are issued through CCI's secure online system.
