An effective treatment programme for dealing with misconduct should be based on a
comprehensive risk management system that:

and operations;
w
w
w
Embeds misconduct risks in your agency’s overall risk management plan;
Includes proactive measures for increasing integrity and preventing misconduct; detection
measures for identifying misconduct; and reactive measures for investigating and
responding to misconduct; and
Closely monitors your agency’s risk exposure, and reviews and improves programmes for
dealing with misconduct.
Each stage of the risk management process will require adequate resources.
Experience has shown that one of the most common misconduct detection
methods is internal reporting by staff. This means that the effectiveness of
treatment programmes greatly depends on the integrity of the people who
create, administer and monitor them.
