OpenAI's Raising Concerns Policy
Key point
OpenAI has unveiled a 'Raising Concerns Policy' that protects employees so they can safely raise concerns related to AI safety and legal compliance.
Details
OpenAI announced the Raising Concerns Policy to ensure the safety and public benefit of AI. This policy protects employees' right to raise concerns about AI safety, related laws, and company policy.
The policy strictly prohibits harassment and retaliation against those who raise concerns, and also explicitly states employees' right to report directly to government agencies such as the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) or the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Through the 24/7 Integrity Line, introduced in April 2024, employees can raise concerns anonymously, and reported matters are handled by the Compliance, Legal, HR, and Security teams.
However, raising concerns is distinguished from the leaking of Trade Secrets. The leaking of technical information directly related to national security is prohibited under confidentiality agreements.
