The Law Society of South Australia (The Society) is committed to achieving high standards of ethical conduct and compliance with its legal obligations. This commitment includes creating and maintaining a working environment in which Eligible Disclosers can freely raise concerns regarding actual or suspected unethical, unlawful or undesirable conduct.
The Whistleblower Policy is underpinned by our values, which include excellence, respect and integrity.
Where an Eligible Discloser has reasonable grounds to suspect misconduct or some other disclosable matter that falls under the definition of 'Reportable Misconduct', that person can make a report known as a 'Protected Disclosure'. A Protected Disclosure can be made anonymously if required, and affords the person formal protection in accordance with this Policy. This Policy also reflects the whistleblower protections outlined in the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (the 'Act').
