Policy statement/overview

Burnet staff and their representatives recognise that at times they will hold a privileged position of power and trust in relation to partners and the communities that we work with. When carrying out Burnet’s work, it is important not to abuse unequal power relationships in any way.

Burnet Institute’s Safeguarding Code of Conduct is to be read and signed by all Burnet Institute staff and representatives.
