Rutgers expects its faculty and staff to handle university affairs in an ethical manner and to follow the policies and procedures in the University Policy Library. Rutgers encourages faculty and staff to report improper conduct and violations of university policies.

Reporting Financial Concerns
If you have direct knowledge of improper accounting practices, fraud, theft, or similar improprieties, the administration recommends you follow this sequence:

• Talk with your Supervisor
• Consult your respective campus business office
• Contact Financial Services Departments
• Contact Internal Audit
• For those who may be uncomfortable following the reporting sequence above, you may submit an anonymous report using EthicsPoint's Hotline.

Reporting Other Concerns
Rutgers also has central departments that can help you with your non-financial concerns.

“Whistleblower Act” Protection
Rutgers adheres to New Jersey’s Conscientious Employee Protection Act.
