Case Study: Auburn University improves ethical risk reporting with NAVEX EthicsPoint

Auburn University improves anonymous reporting across 10,000 employees with NAVEX

Auburn University, a large public university, needed to provide its employees with a completely anonymous method for reporting suspected financial and ethical issues. An external auditor advised outsourcing its hotline system to build greater employee confidence. The university partnered with NAVEX and its EthicsPoint solution to meet this challenge.

NAVEX implemented its EthicsPoint incident management system, which was customized to route different types of reports to the appropriate campus offices. The solution allows for anonymous two-way communication, enabling the audit team to gather more accurate information before an investigation. Since implementing the NAVEX system, Auburn University has seen improved employee confidence, more timely information, and better visibility into potential risks.
