Tip-Offs Anonymous™ Whistleblowing Hotline Service
Tip-offs Anonymous™ is an independent and anonymous hotline and disclosure service provided by Deloitte Singapore. It is a world-class service committed to the elimination of dishonesty in the workplace by enabling management, employees and suppliers to anonymously report inappropriate behaviors.
It is a unique and innovative business solution that provides a powerful and practical deterrent to corruption, fraud, dishonesty and other inappropriate behavior in the workplace. The service is designed to protect the assets, bottom line and reputation of organizations, both in the private and public sectors.
This confidential whistleblowing service operates 24 hours a day, 365 days per year.
We provide a unique telephone number, unique and dedicated website and e-mail address and postal address to allow employees to make confidential disclosures about their concerns in the workplace. These disclosure channels are monitored by Deloitte on a 24 x 7 basis.
We assist is the education and awareness of staff by providing “train the trainer” sessions or direct training to your employees. Trained analysts will respond to calls in English, Mandarin, Malaysian and Indonesian at a secure contact centre equipped with state-of-the-art equipment. Our analysts will interview callers, probing for specific facts such as dates, times, locations, people, amounts involved and any witnesses.
This information is then forwarded to designated senior executives of your organisation without revealing the identity of the person who made the call.
