feedback and complaints, and sees complaints managed in a timely and fair manner;
(b)
recognition of the needs and expectations of complainants;
(c)
an open, accessible and effective complaints process;
(d)
a system that can be used by the organization to analyse, evaluate and audit complaints and
their outcomes in order to deliver quality improvements;
(e) a mechanism for reviewing the effectiveness and efficiency of an organization’s complaint
management practices and outcomes; and
(f)
accessibility of channels that can be used to make complaints, including social media channels
such as facebook and twitter.
NOTE 1 There is no expectation that organizations seek to identify complaints made on third party
social media accounts or channels.
NOTE 2 Guidance on complaint management for small businesses is given in Appendix A.
NOTE 3 Statutory obligations may apply for the organization, as well as best practice guidance set out by the
relevant external review accountability and regulatory bodies.
