What does she do?

As an external Confidential Advisor for Inappropriate Behaviour and Workplace Integrity you can discuss both types of misconduct with me. She listens to you and helps you make an informed decision.

Inappropriate behaviour

This is about issues concerning relations, communication and

management that have hurt or offended you and led you to feel

unsafe at work.

Possible issues may be bullying, intimidation, sexual harassment,

aggression, violence or discrimination.

Workplace integrity

This is about suspected misconduct. You can report issues that could be damaging to the company, such as theft, fraud, abuse of power, violation of the rules and improper behaviour.

Confidentiality

Everything you discuss remains confidential, unless a serious criminal offence has been committed that leaves the confidential advisor in a moral dilemma.
