Discussion Questions
- Do we have policies and procedures for whistleblowing, bullying, harassment, disciplinary and grievance? Are they easy to find (i.e. website)?
- Are these policies and procedures included in staff inductions and training?
- Is there a culture that enables a safe space for people to talk to someone about whistle blowing, bullying, discrimination, or any other grievance?
- Are procedures executed?
- Do we review exit interviews with staff as they leave to consider any issues? Do we monitor any trends in attrition, particularly from certain groups of people?
