Whistleblowing

The Auditor General is classed as a prescribed person. This means that a worker can report concerns about wrongdoing in a workplace to the Auditor General, as well as, or instead of, their employer.

Providing that the concerns raised relate to one or more of the following matters, a worker may benefit from protection against detriment from their employer:

  • the proper conduct of public business; or

  • value for money, fraud and corruption in relation to the provision of public services.

The Auditor General will consider, but isn't obliged to investigate, every disclosure he receives.
