INVESTIGATION OF COMPLAINTS. Every reasonable effort should be made to investigate all the relevant circumstances and information surrounding a complaint.
CUSTOMER-FOCUSED APPROACH. The organisation should adopt a customer- focused approach, be open to feedback including complaints, and should show commitment to resolving complaints by its actions.
RESOLUTION OF COMPLAINT. Following an appropriate investigation, the organisation should offer a response, for example, correct the problem and prevent it happening in the future. The decision or action taken regarding the complaint should be communicated to the complainant as soon as the decision or action is taken.
ACCOUNTABILITY. The organisation should ensure that accountability for and reporting on the actions and decisions of the organisations with respect to complaints handling is clearly established.
