RIT Ethics and Compliance Reporting Hotline

RIT is committed to conducting its operations ethically and in full compliance with our university policies and the law. To support this pledge, RIT offers a confidential and anonymous hotline, EthicsPoint - operated by NAVEX, an independent third-party provider - for reporting concerns involving misconduct or violations of university policies, applicable regulations, or contractual obligations. It is important to note that employees who make good faith reports of suspected misconduct or violation are protected from retaliation in accordance with RIT's Code of Ethical Conduct and Compliance.

RIT’s Ethics and Compliance Hotline is not meant to replace existing ways of reporting concerns. It should not be used for issues related to health, fire, safety, most personnel matters (except harassment or discrimination), or academic concerns.

RIT encourages reporting possible misconduct - especially related to finances, compliance, or misuse of resources - through regular communication channels. The best first step is to talk with your supervisor. If that doesn’t resolve the issue, you can reach out to department/division leadership, your Human Resources Business Partner (HRBP), or other appropriate RIT management.

You can submit an EthicsPoint report:

  • 📞 By phone:
  • 🌐 Online: via this secure portal
  • 🕵️‍♂️ Anonymously or with your contact information

For a list of other RIT reporting options, please see Reporting an Incident. Visit Support Services for both on-campus and off-campus resources available to support RIT Community members during difficult times.
