Conduct

No outcome until procedural fairness is complete; the manager decides and HR concurs

Allegation in writing with particulars, reasonable time to respond, a support person, an independent investigator, findings on the balance of probabilities, and a proportionate outcome put to the employee. The workforce agent checks each requirement; the delegated manager decides and the HR director concurs on the same outcome (GL-PW-07).

CD-2026-03 · M. Lindqvist

Raised by General manager on 15/08/2026

Allegation: Accessed the register entry of a neighbour without a business need on three occasions in August 2026 (MG-06 access log).

INVESTIGATED

Process

  • 17/08/2026 · Allegation put in writing with particulars (HR director) · Letter with the three access log entries attached
  • 17/08/2026 · Response invited; support person offered (HR director) · 14 days to respond
  • 31/08/2026 · Response received (M. Lindqvist) · Says the access was to check a boundary for a council matter; support person present
  • 08/09/2026 · Investigation completed (External investigator (P. Adeyemi, internal audit)) · No council matter existed for that lot on those dates

Findings: On the balance of probabilities the three accesses were not for a business purpose; the explanation is not supported by any council record. No disclosure of the information to a third party was found.

Proposed: final warning
