NAGT Policy on Suspected Misconduct, Dishonesty, Fraud, and Whistle-blower Protection

Approved by NAGT's Executive Committee on September 17, 2010

If any person knows of or has a suspicion about misconduct, dishonesty or fraud, the NAGT Executive Director should be contacted. Individuals may submit an anonymous written report. If the alleged wrongdoing concerns the Executive Director, then the President or other officer of the organization should be notified instead.

If the Executive Director, President or other officer of the organization receives information about misconduct, dishonesty or fraud, they shall inform the Executive Committee, which shall determine the procedure for investigating all credible allegations.

At all times, the privacy and reputation of individuals involved will be respected. There will no punishment or other retaliation for the reporting of conduct under this policy. If the person providing the information requests anonymity, this request will be respected to the extent that doing so does not impede any investigation.
