Complaints by Staff Policy and Guidelines (Unrevised)
Overview:
The University of Adelaide is committed to providing staff with a supportive work environment. The Complaints by Staff Policy allows the University to deal with complaints from staff members about the behaviour of other staff members, or matters that adversely affect their ability to work productively in a positive environment. The University has a legal responsibility to ensure that staff members are not subjected to unlawful discrimination, harassment, victimisation or bullying. The complaint resolution process aims to resolve staff complaints fairly, with an emphasis on resolving conflict at the local level and improving working relations.
The Policy does not reduce the rights of an individual under State and Federal law to pursue a complaint through an external agency. However, once an external agency has been engaged the external agency's process will take precedence.
