Our Policies
This page lists policies and commitments that help govern the operations of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Housing Queensland.
Supporting Good Governance
Code of Conduct for Board Members
Housing Queensland Board members recognise their role in maintaining the organisation’s reputation for integrity and propriety in all respects and they agree to adhere to the Housing Queensland Code of Conduct for Board Members Policy.
Code of Conduct for Staff
Housing Queensland staff have a responsibility to conduct themselves with a high degree of integrity, to strive for excellence in the work they perform and the outcomes they achieve, and to promote the public interest.
Executive Accountability Framework
Housing Queensland executives are held to high standards of accountability. The Housing Queensland Executive Accountability Framework outlines where accountability for the organisation’s functions and operations lies within the executive team.
Risk Management Policy
The Housing Queensland Risk Management Policy is about managing Housing Queensland’s risk environment and taking measures, where necessary, to ensure those risks are contained to acceptable levels. It includes a Risk Appetite Statement.
Work Health and Safety Policy (WHS)
Housing Queensland is committed to providing all its workers with a safe and healthy place to work, and work practices that do not compromise the health or safety of others, including contractors, visitors and members of the public.
Privacy Policy
Housing Queensland respects the privacy of the individuals we interact with and those whose personal information we collect. This Housing Queensland Privacy Policy sets out some key information about the organisation’s approach to privacy.
Outside Work Policy for Staff
An important aspect of Housing Queensland governance is to ensure that the external activities of our staff avoid conflicts of interest or reputational concerns while also supporting their aspirations. Our staff are required to disclose and obtain approval to undertake any paid or unpaid external work activities. This is to maintain transparency with our stakeholders and the broader community.
Gifts and Bequests Policy
The advancement of the strategic objectives of the organisation can be assisted by property donations or bequests (and gifts and donations). The primary goal of this policy is to establish the types of gifts and donations—especially where they involve land, or land and houses, the avenues by which gifts and donations can be made, and the arrangements that Housing Queensland will enact to manage them.
