Whistleblowing
Water Corporation encourages whistleblowers to speak up when they see or experience misconduct. You can report wrongdoing safely and securely, knowing we’ll protect your identity and support you throughout the process.
Your reports help us uncover issues that might otherwise go unnoticed. By supporting whistleblowers, we strengthen our ethical culture and increase the likelihood that misconduct will be addressed.
We manage whistleblowing in line with the Corporations Act 2001. Under this legislation, we’re legally required to protect the confidentiality of whistleblowers. We won’t tolerate any detrimental conduct towards anyone who reports or is suspected of reporting misconduct or an improper state of affairs.
Who can make this disclosure
You can make a disclosure if you are:
- an employee, officer or contractor
- a supplier of goods or services (paid or unpaid), including your employees
- an associate of Water Corporation
- a relative, spouse or dependent of any of the above
How to make a disclosure
We’ve engaged Deloitte to provide an independent whistleblower service. You can make a disclosure anonymously, confidentially and outside of business hours. You’ll also be able to receive updates while staying anonymous.
Deloitte will assess your report and send it to the most appropriate officer for investigation.
If you want your report to go directly to a Director of the Board, please include this in your submission.
