Our Policies

We have a range of policies that ensure staff understand the Ombudsman’s vision, values and purpose and promote consistent work practices.

Each policy is a statement or instruction from the Ombudsman setting out how particular issues should be addressed.

Key policies

Some of the key policies that direct our work are:

• Code of Conduct [PDF, 130.4KB]

HR policies

Several policies cover staff working conditions. They capture our commitment to being a best practice employer.

Where required we have developed these policies with our staff, to make sure they are fair.
