Safe Reporting

Northern Health’s Safe Reporting office receives and investigates reports of possible wrongdoing by individuals associated with Northern Health (e.g. employee or contractor), in good faith and without fear of reprisal. This includes disclosures from employees covered under the Public Interest Disclosure Act.

It also provides for a consistent and administratively fair investigations process into reports of possible wrongdoing.
