DOD appropriated fund employees come under the jurisdiction of
the Office of Special Counsel for investigations of violations
of the Whistleblower Protection Act.
We recommend that you read the following information about what to
include in your complaint before you submit your Hotline complaint: When calling or sending in a complaint, please
be as specific as possible. Your complaint should provide:
- The servicemember's or employee's full name
- rank or pay grade
- duty station
- specifically what wrongdoing you are reporting
- specific dates and times
- specific location where wrongdoing occurred
- how the individual completed the alleged wrongdoing
- why the individual perpetrated the offense
- why you believe the alleged activity was misconduct
Minor incidents of offenses
listed above, i.e., minor time and attendance abuse, or misuse of
Government vehicles should be reported to your local Inspector General,
military investigative service, or military police unit. We encourage you to register complaints and grievances
through appropriate management and grievance channels, and submit
suggestions for management improvements through the proper DoD Incentive
Awards Program. Personnel matters involving requests for individual
relief should be handled through the appropriate grievance channels. |
