- Description
Aim: This course will help you identify and prevent systemic issues within your organisations integrity systems.
Course outline: Your organisation uses integrity systems to address risks like corruption, fraud, staff misconduct, safety concerns, bullying, harassment, discrimination, inequality and security incidents.
When integrity systems work well, they can minimise your organisation’s risk.
However, failures in the preparations and behaviour of pivotal staff, can result in incidents managed outside of the expected processes and with a reduced level of transparency.
The reduced transparency can disguise the weak spots and prevent intervention. Without intervention, those weaknesses may:
- lead to unnecessary exposure of identities
- compromise the integrity of evidence
- reduce the confidence of victims resulting in under-reporting of integrity issues
- encourage repeated bad behaviour
- or make your organisation open to corrective events where incident information follows an unwanted path of exposure.
The reduced transparency can then lead to repeated failures that become systemic or widespread into other integrity systems.
Any problem with transparency can have harmful effects on your integrity systems.
However, with adequate transparency, you can identify and prevent systemic failures.
During this course, we’ll also examine how the transparency components of your integrity systems can achieve this.
We’ll also provide you with supporting information to help you improve your organisations transparency beyond this course.
