Most corrupt, illegal, and immoral practices go undetected because employees fear the consequences of reporting them through internal channels. A confidential, secure hotline cannot replace your organization’s existing communication methods but it is one more channel through which you can learn about these sensitive issues.

Inova offers confidential whistle-blowing hotlines which benefit from the following straightforward process:

• Highly trained, compliant, tactful, and experienced call handlers handle all whistle-blowing calls.
• Whistle-blowing calls can be made anonymously and confidentially
• The call handler verbally summarizes the issues for every call for optimum accuracy.
• The call handler offers the whistle-blower a unique call number in case he or she wishes to phone back.
• The whistle-blower’s demeanor is noted.
• The call handler prepares a summary report, which management checks thoroughly to ensure high levels of accuracy.
• The call handler submits the whistle blowing report to authorized recipients within a specified timeframe (a unique password is required for verification).

All SAP professionals are certified through a nationally recognized certified organization. IEA substance abuse professionals (SAP) will evaluate and case manage employees who have tested positive under DOT/DOD regulations. We will: 

• Assess the employee’s problem with alcohol or drugs.
• Recommend a course of education and/or treatment.
• Coordinate treatment referrals.
• Conduct a face to face follow-up evaluation prior to return to safety sensitive duty.
• Determine the appropriate follow-up testing schedule, monitor employees throughout the entire process.
