We are committed to providing top-notch language access for all of our Deaf, hard of hearing, and non-English speaking consumers and value your input. Below is GLOBO's step-by-step process for handling grievances or complaints that might arise under our work with the state of Indiana.
Handling Complaints
Due to the nature of the listed complaints, GLOBO will handle the situation with diplomacy, decorum, and professionalism using the following steps as a guide:
- Attempt to resolve the complaining "in-house" while minimizing disruption of services to the consumer as much as possible.
- Document facts of the situation.
- Can be anonymous if necessary, but the more information the better.
- Follow up with those involved with complaint to make sure it was resolved.
- Follow up two weeks after complaint was sent to make sure complaint was resolved.
