Our Commitment

The Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians is committed to understanding the needs of our people and addressing those needs in an ethical and responsible manner. Employees and Tribal Officials are expected to conduct themselves with integrity, impartiality, and professionalism that will reflect favorably upon themselves and the Tribe. This is essential to ensure the proper performance of Tribal business and the maintenance of confidence by our people.

The Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians is committed to an environment where open, honest communications are the expectation, not the exception. We want you to feel comfortable in approaching your supervisor or management in instances where you believe violations of policies or standards have occurred.

In situations where you prefer to place an anonymous report in confidence, you are encouraged to use this hotline, hosted by a third party hotline provider, EthicsPoint. You are encouraged to submit reports of violations, as well as asking for guidance related to policies and procedure and providing positive suggestions.

The information you provide will be sent to us by EthicsPoint on a totally confidential and anonymous basis if you should choose. You have our guarantee that your comments will be heard.

See the EthicsPoint FAQs for more information.
