Commonwealth public service to share views and perceptions of corruption
In a piece published this week in the Mandarin, Deputy Commissioner Nicole Rose encouraged all members of the Commonwealth public service to participate in the Commission’s first Integrity Survey, which commences on Monday 19 August.
The survey, which is anonymous and consists of approximately 30 questions, will ask participants about their experiences and perceptions of integrity and corruption in the Commonwealth public service. The results will be used to shape the Commission’s work educating to prevent corrupt conduct and enhance integrity in its jurisdiction.
Deputy Commissioner Rose said:
“Your perceptions and observations are vital to us in ensuring we have a balanced cross-section of participants and views. The more data we have, the better our analysis and the more relevant and useful our responding initiatives can be.”
Participation in the survey is completely voluntary and all participant information is de-identified. To learn more, visit the Commission’s website.
