Consultation period: Friday 13 October – Thursday 9 November
We have reviewed and updated our existing Unreasonable Customer Conduct Policy in line with the NSW Ombudsman’s Managing Unreasonable Conduct by Complainants Model Policy (July 2022).
Council is committed to being accessible and responsive to all customers. Our success at meeting customers' needs relies strongly on how we interact with customers and how we develop mutually respectful relationships.
When Council staff and customers are courteous and professional with each other, outcomes are mostly positive. Unreasonable behaviour undermines efforts to deliver good customer service.
This Policy helps Council staff take proactive and decisive action to manage any customer conduct that is negative or unreasonable.
