The Code of Conduct (the Code) outlines the ethical behaviour and obligations of those who are employed by, or act on behalf of, the department. Ethical behaviour relates to personal integrity, relationships with others, and accountability for behaviour, decisions, and actions.
The Code is an overarching framework, supported by corporate policies, procedures, and guidelines (policy documents).
There will be situations that will require ethical decision making that may not be covered in the Code. In this situation, it is the responsibility of all employees to review the relevant policy documents and seek advice from their line manager as needed.
