Your name will be held in confidence through the investigation stage of the process.  However, once the investigation has been completed, the Executive Ethics Board is bound by the public records act, and we will no longer be able to protect your identity unless you have indicated that to reveal your identity will endanger your life, safety or property.  Unlike a complaint filed pursuant to other state laws, the Ethics in Public Service Act does not protect against retaliation in the workplace--fear of retaliation is not sufficient grounds to seek confidentiality with the Executive Ethics Board.
