# Assessing Your Whistleblowing Hotline Maturity

[Oleg Lagodiyenko,](https://ethicontrol.com/en/blog/author/oleg-lagodiyenko)  3 April 2024

When engaging with potential clients who have an internal ethics hotline, we humbly seek their understanding as we believe there is significant room for enhancement. To aid in this assessment, we have devised a concise self-evaluation form comprising just 15 straightforward inquiries. These pivotal questions serve as a guide to determine if there is a need for enhancements in the hotline system.
