Ethics Helpline
The Institute of Management Accountants offers an ethics helpline service. Members of IMA and other financial professionals may contact this helpline for free, confidential guidance on ethical issues. Please call 1-800-245-1383 for this service. Individuals outside of the U.S. and Canada may have to dial another toll-free access code first before dialing the ethics hotline. Please follow the instructions below:
- 1. Go to the AT&T Web site.
2. Select your country from the drop-down menu (in the box for AT&T USADirect ACCESS NUMBERS).
3. Dial the numbers provided before you dial the ethics hotline number.
The purpose of the helpline is to provide guidance to those in the profession that find themselves in an ethical dilemma.
After a preliminary discussion of the problem to determine the kind of ethics matter being reported, an ethics counselor will respond to the caller. Confidentiality is maintained at all times. The counselor will not provide a specific resolution but will explain how the dilemma relates to the provisions of IMA's Statement of Ethical Professional Practice.
