Protected Disclosures

The Southern Regional Assembly is committed to providing workers with a confidential and secure pathway for reporting concerns about wrongdoing in the workplace and also to protecting workers against penalisation for having reported those concerns.
The Protected Disclosures Act 2014 protects workers who report certain workplace wrongdoings. A formal channel for reporting such concerns has been established in accordance with the Act. This Protected Disclosures policy sets out how to make a report, the types of wrongdoing that constitute a protected disclosure, what happens when a report is received, and the protections that are available against penalisation for reporting a concern about wrongdoing.
