Blow the Whistle on Government Fraud, Waste, and Abuse

Sent on behalf of Neal Hoss, Vice President, Finance & Administrative Services

California law allows state employees to report waste, fraud, violations of law or health or safety threats, and to be free from retaliation for doing so.

At the CSU, there are several options available for employees and applicants for employment to file a protected disclosure:

  • Contact the designated campus administrator for Whistleblower complaints: 
    Neal Hoss, Vice President, Finance & Administrative Services
    Email: nhoss@csusm.edu 
    ​Phone: (760) 750-4950
     
  • Contact the California State University Office of the Chancellor
    Vice Chancellor of Human Resources
    401 Golden Shore, Long Beach, CA 90802
     
  • Contact the California State Auditor’s Office Whistleblower hotline by phone, web or mail.
    The California State Auditor’s Office is your confidential avenue for reporting improper activities by state agencies or employees.

The 2019 Whistleblower memorandum, which includes information on what to report, whistleblower protections, how to report, helpful tips, as well as the investigation of complaints, can be viewed at http://www.auditor.ca.gov/pdfs/other/whistleblower_brochure.pdf
