Abstract:Previous research examining the reporting intentions of employees regarding the discovery of wrongdoing by consultants is scant, which is unfortunate because the enhanced presence of consultants in organizations. This study suggests that perceptions about the seriousness of a wrongdoing, personal costs and personal responsibility relate to reporting a wrongdoing, and moral-equity judgments are associated with reporting through a normal channel. Only perceptions of seriousness and personal costs are significantly associated for an anonymous reporting channel.
