Whistle Blower

Did you know that Lifeskills Australia (your EAP Provider) not only offers counselling but we can also assist you if you feel something isn’t quite right in your work environment.

You have the choice to remain anonymous or you may wish to disclose your name. This hotline is safe, strictly confidential and non-judgemental. This Hotline is set up to help you report incidents relating to harassment and bullying, (both experienced and observed), theft, fraud and any other perceived inappropriate or illegal conduct.

Why do I need to call Lifeskills Australia?

By having someone independent and removed from your place of employment you may feel more comfortable notify us as a third party. Being able to express your concerns to someone independent can help ease your burden and may potentially help your co-workers in the future.

What happens next?

Lifeskills Australia will notify your HR department (or allocated representative) to inform them of the information they have received. At no time will the caller identification be disclosed, unless you wish to give written consent. Lifeskills Australia acts only as an informant to your employer.

Still unsure?

You’re welcome to call our centre 24/7 to discuss anything that is concerning you, even if you don’t want to report it, you can call us for advice and reassurance for any situation you think is inappropriate in your work environment.
