From 1 July 2019 there are more stringent company requirements under new Commonwealth 'Whistleblower' legislation.
What are the issues?
Organisations are now developing and introducing their own Whistleblower policies to meet legislative requirements with many still 'finding their feet' preparing their policies, practices, training, communications, and record-keeping processes.
What does this mean for you?
There will be many practical issues to work through under the new legislative regime, particularly for organisations that previously did not have strong and defined disclosures policies and practices, but who will now be subject to much more stringent requirements for clear robust Whistleblower Policies and Protections from 1 January 2020.
