Reporting Violations
In the event that any member of the general public may witness purposeful or willful neglect or abuse of our birds by employees or agents of Hy-Line, they may send a confidential email incident report to: info@hyline.com. Sufficient details (your name & telephone callback number, who, what, when & where, etc.) are needed in order for Hy-Line to act on these reports.
If violations of our welfare policies occur and are witnessed by Hy-Line employees, then they are strictly required to report any abuse or violations of policies to any Manager, with Managers then reporting the incident to their Department Director and ultimately to the company President.
Audits and Updates
Our welfare policies, practices, procedures and operational facilities undergo an annual documented audit, both internally by Hy-Line staff, and externally by recognized experts in the area of poultry welfare. It is the company’s goal to ensure that we maintain compliance with our own policies, but also with the latest developments in care and welfare practices when supported by research and practical experience.
