V. POLICY

All employees have a responsibility and an affirmative duty to report actual or suspected wrongful conduct, and the University has a responsibility to make sure that they can do so without fear of retaliation or reprisal.

  1. Reporting Policy Violations & Crime

    1. Employees, students employed by the university and even contractors occasionally violate university policy or even commit crimes. Unfortunately, there are times when these behaviors go unreported because people fear reprisal or retribution from those who are committing the acts. 

    2. Rowan University prohibits retaliation, harassment, intimidation or discrimination against any individual who makes a good faith report of suspected wrongdoing. If something seems wrong, it may be, so employees are encouraged to report it.

  2. Reporting compliance and ethics concerns

    1. As always, report immediate threats or danger by calling 911. Other University contacts include: 

      1. University Ethics Liaison Officer (ELO), established under Executive Order 24 (Christie). The University's ELO is Robert Zazzali who is located on the Glassboro Campus at Bole Hall. He can be reached at 856-256-4110. The Deputy ELO is Ray Braeunig who is located on the Stratford Campus in the University Education Center (UEC-1034). He can be reached at 856-566-6136. 

      2. University Chief Compliance & Privacy Officer, Ray Braeunig . As Compliance Officer, he is obligated by law to report any violations of any Federal Health Care program requirements or of Rowan's own Policies & Procedures to the Office of Inspector General (OIG). While his Compliance duties relate primarily to Federal Health Care program requirements, his duties as Privacy Officer extend across all campuses.

      3. University Equity and Diversity Office. Johanna Velez-Yelin is Assistant Vice President Equity and Diversity and can be reached at the Glassboro Campus in Linden Hall. She can be reached at 856-256-5440.

    2. The obligations and authority of these offices overlap in some measure, but their jurisdictions and authority are different. Calls to them are confidential, and they will direct you to the right area based on the issue or registered concern.

    3. The university also maintains a confidential hotline It is the Rowan University Integrity Hotline; available 24 hours a day/7days a week, via a toll free phone number, 1 855-431-9967, and via a website: http://rowan.edu/integrityline.

    4. The schools, departments and units that are a part of Rowan University have established, and shall continue to maintain, effective and confidential means for individuals to report allegations or concerns that include actual or suspected violations of law, violations of Rowan University policies or procedures, or any other type of wrongful conduct. Individuals will be permitted to make such reports anonymously if they so desire, and their anonymity will be protected to the extent possible and as permitted by law.

    5. To make a report, individuals may contact their direct manager or other members of their management team. In addition, individuals may call the units Compliance Office, General Counsel; Ethics Liaison Officers; or they may call the Rowan University Integrity Line.

  3. Integrity hotline: 855-431-9967

    1. New in 2014, Rowan has created a phone hotline for those who want to report issues confidentially (to the extent possible) to an outside agency. The hotline, (855) 431-9967, is managed by Global Compliance, an independent organization that provides a secure and confidential means to file a report 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The system accommodates callers in 150 languages as well as callers with special needs.

    2. Global Compliance logs each and every report. Whether you use the Integrity Hotline Phone number or website the Rowan University-Integrity Hotline allows you to report issues and concerns you may have (regarding but not limited to), unethical behavior, inappropriate conduct, bullying, harassment, and any other violation to Rowan University policies. This reporting process is secure and confidential. The organization prioritizes the speed with which reports must be addressed as follows:

      Priority A – Immediate
      Priority B – Moderate
      Priority C – Standard

    3. A committee of two University employees reviews each and every report. Should they believe the report involves factors that require greater perspective and independence they have access to outside investigators.

    4. Visit www.rowan.edu/compliance to learn more about Rowan's policy on Reporting Compliance and Ethics Concerns, the protection afforded to employees who report violations and rights of individuals accused of wrongdoing.
