Littelfuse Response
6yThank you for your review. We always appreciate and value the feedback we receive from current and former employees. We are disappointed to hear about your feelings toward our people processes, but are interested in learning more so that we can make any necessary improvements. There are several ways to report a concern or seek guidance and we hope you will consider using our Ethics Helpline — helpline@littelfuse.com or 1-800-803-4135. You can also reach out to a supervisor or manager; an HR representative; or a member of our Legal team.
Our recent video on the use of social media apparently missed the mark for you. The goal of the video you mentioned was to ensure that our employees maintain appropriate boundaries between the workplace and their online persona — not to discourage speaking up. In a light-hearted, humorous way, the video was intended to remind our team of the risks involved in sharing confidential company information via social channels, and that employees can still be subject to company policies if they engage in inappropriate, unprofessional conduct via social media. In no way was the video designed to dissuade people from raising concerns. We want to hear from our employees about any topic that can help make our work environment the best that it can possibly be.
As for your comments on our HR team, we have a cohesive team of qualified professionals that lends support for a wide range of HR-related topics regardless of their area of specialization. This is a function of our company’s growth and the need for team members to pitch in across the department at times. Again, if you have specific concerns, we would encourage you to contact our Ethics Helpline at helpline@littelfuse.com (1-800-803-4135) or reach out to a manager, HR representative, or a member of the Legal team. We have a strict policy of non-retaliation for anyone who raises a concern or complaint in good faith. No adverse action would ever be taken against such an employee.
