According to a recent survey the majority of U.S. employees would report wrongdoing in the workplace if they knew they would be protected from retaliation and could obtain a monetary reward.
The survey asked 1,000 Americans of their knowledge of wrongdoing in the workplace.
The report found that 34 percent of participants said they knew of unethical behavior at their place of employment.
Seventy-eight percent of participants said they would report such actions if they could do it anonymously and it would result in a monetary award.
The survey also found that 79 percent of respondents would push a loved one to report if those conditions applied.
The report found fluctuations based on income, race and age.
