Ethics Hotline

UFG’s Ethics Hotline operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and facilitates the reporting of possible illegal, unethical, or improper conduct.

The Ethics Hotline is available to our employees, officers, directors, shareholders, as well as agents, policyholders, contractors, vendors and others who have a business relationship with UFG Insurance. Anyone who has information about an actual or potential violation of the UFG Code of Ethics and Business Conduct wrongdoing or unethical behavior involving the company or any of its employees should submit a report to the Ethics Hotline. 

The Ethics Hotline provides a web-based reporting capability, as well as a toll-free telephone-based service. Translation services are available to permit internal and external reporters to submit complaints in their preferred language.

Regardless of how a report is made, UFG Insurance prohibits retaliation against anyone who, in good faith, reports a possible violation or who participates in an investigation, even if sufficient evidence is not found to substantiate the concern. UFG Insurance will take appropriate action against any individual determined to be engaging in retaliatory conduct. 

Other Channels of Communication 

UFG Insurance offers several internal channels of communication for reporting potential misconduct. Although you should choose the channel you feel most comfortable with, engaging resources closest to the situation may promote more efficient resolution.
