BCG’s ‘Speak Up’ Line
As part of our effort to lead with integrity and to prevent and identify misconduct, BCG offers a reporting option called Speak Up. As an alternative to sending concerns directly to one of our senior leaders, our Speak Up line provides employees, customers, suppliers, and any other third parties an opportunity to report suspected violations of applicable law and BCG policies. BCG confidentially reviews concrete reports and forwards them to appropriate external parties if warranted. Users can remain anonymous when submitting a report, unless they choose otherwise.
