Code of Conduct

All kaimahi are required to comply with our code of conduct.

Our Code of Conduct provides us with guidelines on how we go about our work and how to do this in-line with our organisational values. It is important that all kaimahi are familiar and comply with this code. It includes clear expectations about behaviour and conduct, and the consequences of not meeting these expectations.

WorkView the full glossary
requires diverse thinking, backgrounds and experiences. Our kaimahi are valued, respected, and supported to reach their potential. We are committed to supporting a diverse and capable workforce, building cultural competency and continuing to have no gender or ethnicity pay gap. This is our first Diversity Equity and Inclusion (DEI) plan.

We have chosen to publish our own DEI plan because we are operationally separate from our host agency, and our workforce profile is different.
