Freedom to speak up
Our freedom to speak up guardians are in place to support staff to raise concerns and create a positive culture were staff feel empowered to speak up. If something doesn't feel right at work, our guardians are there to provide a route to seek advise and escalate concerns confidentially.
We know it is not always easy to speak up, but it is the right thing to do. Our guardians:
- provide support and encouragement to staff at all levels and enable them to speak up safely
- provide support and guidance to managers to ensure we respond positively when people speak up
- support cultural changes in the organisation - openness, listening and learning
