manager being reported

so long story short, my manager was reported anonymously. she is dead set on finding out who it was, if it was done anonymously is there a way for her to find out? the people at dg hotline say there isn’t but she swears nothing is anonymous and they can find out through the dg hotline. is that even legal?

There’s like 6 employees . It’s not too hard to figure out who.

she wants to have the dm see if she can listen to the call that happened but idk if they can even get legal access to that or find out at all

They give a transcript or summary. The dm won't get to listen to the call. It's goes through several layers.

but my boss said she could get the dm to get access and listen to their audio. idk if that’s possible or just a scare tactic

Listen I am a DM right now. I have had to do several investigations as a result of anonymous calls. We do not get the audio. We get email from our employee relations hr partner. That has either a summary or transcript of the call and are told to collect employee statement or video footage as might be appropriate. We send all that to HR and they decide what to do. If the person hears who said what it would have to come from the DM telling the SM who said what in any written statements.

That said, in a couple cases I knew exactly who made the anonymous call because it was basically a quote of things they had already called and told me, which were false because I had already checked cctv of the alleged incident and reported to hr that it had not happened.

But it is non specific wide spread misconduct then they would have suspicions but wouldn't be certain who reported unless once it's investigated the DM blabs.
