Our Offerings
Employees, who fear retaliation, may ignore wrongdoing entirely or may choose to report externally. Policy edicts and conventional compliance training are insufficient safeguards against retaliation. Organizations need to develop abatement plans based upon their culture’s retaliation risk.
-
We offer guidance to ensure your policies clearly articulate your organization’s support of a speak up culture.
Beyond policies, we offer guidance in developing step by step processes for incident reporting, follow up protocols and specific retaliation protections.
-
Fear of retaliation effectively suppresses good faith reporting while advancing a toxic culture.
Individuals who “see something” will hesitate to report when they believe inadequate safeguards exist.
Bystanders, who witness retaliatory actions meted out to those who do report, will similarly choose not to report.
We identify whether the key characteristics of a retaliatory culture are embedded in your organization. Based upon our review, we recommend substantive steps to encourage reporting; protect and monitor those who do report; and, establish ongoing communication channels.
-
Based upon your organization’s framework, we work with you to develop key benchmarks and ongoing monitoring initiatives. We focus on declines and variances in performance assessments, compensation awards, productivity, employee status, retention rates, and career progression. We also recommend closely tracking pulse and exit survey comments and ratings
-
When organizations initiate investigations of retaliation concerns, most track retaliation claims at a general, non-specific level. The type of retaliation and the perceived cause of the retaliatory act are not delineated. We develop case reporting insights for trending purposes and to fine tune future training and policy initiatives.
