Welcome to the Ohio University Internal Audit web site. Our site is designed to familiarize the university community with our services and to provide guidance for improving the university's control environment.
As good stewards of Ohio University (OHIO) resources, we are expected to carry out our responsibilities in a manner consistent with the highest ethical standards and the law.
Each of us has a duty to report known or suspected fraudulent or unethical activity. OHIO has shown its commitment to promoting a culture of ethics and integrity by contracting with EthicsPoint®, a third party provider located in Portland, Oregon, to manage the OHIO Ethics Hotline.
We encourage employees to report concerns through normal lines of communication. However, when employees are uncomfortable using these methods, the Ethics Hotline offers an alternative for filing legitimate concerns in an anonymous manner.
While investigations are performed in a highly confidential manner, it should be noted that records generated in the course of an investigation may be subject to disclosure in accordance with applicable law, including Ohio's Public Records Act.
If you have a concern about possible fraud, waste, abuse of university assets, or other compliance or regulatory issue, we encourage you to file a report through the Ethics Hotline by calling EthicsPoint® toll-free at 1-866-294-9591. Reports may be submitted anonymously. OHIO will not tolerate retaliation against anyone making good-faith reports of misconduct.
