The Hotline and Investigations Division executes the Department of Defense
Inspector General Hotline program within the Department of the Navy (DON).
Our purpose is to identify and eliminate fraud, waste, mismanagement and
inefficiencies in the operation of the U.S. Navy. We provide a confidential
avenue of redress for individuals to report allegations of wrongdoing
pertaining to programs, personnel, and operations that fall under the
purview of the DON pursuant to the Inspector General Act of 1978.
There are three Branches that comprise the Hotline and Investigations
Division; Hotline Administration, Investigations, and Military Whistleblower
Reprisal/Mental Health Evaluation (MHE). The Hotline Branch establishes
policy and procedures on the efficiency of the DON Hotline program; and
receives, reviews and processes incoming contacts and complaints. The
Investigations Branch investigates complaints or allegations of wrongdoing
and misconduct that involves or gives rise to fraud, waste, or mismanagement
within the programs and operations of the DON. Both of these Branches also
provide oversight of Echelon II IG investigations. Additionally, the
Military Whistleblower Reprisal/MHE Branch is responsible for investigating
and providing oversight of Echelon II IG investigations of allegations of
Military Whistleblower Reprisal and improper MHE filed by active duty,
reserve, retired and former DON military members. |
If you are considering filing a hotline complaint,
please review the Hotline Complaint
Procedure.
