OUR COMMITMENT
- We will deal with complaints quickly.
- We will treat all complaints as confidential. Personally identifiable information concerning the complainant will be available where needed, but only for the purposes of addressing the complaint within the organisation.
- All complaints will be regarded seriously and will be dealt with in the shortest possible time, and every endeavour will be made to resolve complaints satisfactorily.
- Responses will be comprehensive and deal with all the issues contained in the complaint. The response will be accurate because an inaccurate response undermines the credibility of the organisation.
- Front line staff responsible for trying to resolve grievances will have skills, training and ability in communication and customer contact work.
