Code of conduct
At ANZSOG, we prioritize the highest standards of integrity and ethical behavior in all our activities. The Code of Conduct provides a framework to guide employees, students, contractors, and other affiliates in their day-to-day work and engagement with ANZSOG.
The Code ensures that everyone associated with ANZSOG acts with integrity, respect, and professionalism, contributing to a safe and inclusive environment.
The Code applies to all ANZSOG employees (permanent, temporary, casual), program participants, contractors, consultants, board members, and anyone working on behalf of ANZSOG. This includes activities within and beyond ANZSOG premises, such as online environments and external events.
Key Responsibilities:
- Uphold ANZSOG’s values of respect, trust, and collegiality.
- Ensure behaviour aligns with the Code in all professional and social interactions linked to ANZSOG.
- Protect ANZSOG’s reputation by demonstrating integrity, honesty, and accountability.
- Promote a diverse and inclusive workplace free from discrimination, harassment, and bullying.
Our Standards are:
- Zero Harm: ANZSOG is committed to ensuring a safe, supportive work environment for everyone, with zero tolerance for harmful behaviour.
- Diversity & Inclusion: We embrace diversity, ensuring equal opportunity and a workplace that fosters respect for all individuals.
- Financial Integrity: Employees must use resources responsibly, complying with ANZSOG’s financial policies and avoiding any form of fraud or corruption.
- Conflict of Interest: Employees must disclose conflicts of interest to avoid situations where private interests could interfere with ANZSOG duties.
Breaches of the Code are taken seriously, with consequences ranging from disciplinary actions to termination, depending on the severity. Reporting breaches is encouraged and can be done confidentially, with protection against retaliation for those raising concerns in good faith.
