Mr VOWLES - 2014-03-19
The Office of the Commissioner for Public Employment has a whole-of-government policy on preventing and eliminating workplace bullying. This policy applies to all in the public service, including the hundreds of public servants in your agencies. The policy states bullying is not acceptable to anyone, anytime or anywhere.
Do you agree workplace bullying is not acceptable in your agencies and for complaints to be dealt with promptly, without victimising the person who makes the report? What do you have to say to the member for Namatjira and the public?
ANSWER
Madam Speaker, I wholeheartedly agree with the policy which was alluded to with regards to workplace bullying. With regards to the second part of your question, I have said it before and I will say it again, I will not be making any comment relating to discussions which took place inside the party room.
