2023 Code of Conduct

Consult Australia’s Code of Ethics, along with the Code of Conduct and the Guide on Consult Australia Activities and Avoiding Anti-Competitive Behaviour sets out the behaviour expected of Consult Australia members and their representatives. Consult Australia members are businesses that provide advisory, design, and engineering consultancy services and are part of the same industry. The Code of Conduct assists individual representatives of member businesses understand their obligations with regards to their behaviour and participation at Consult Australia member meetings (including with stakeholders). Participants acknowledge the responsibility and privilege to participate in meetings and develop policy and other guidance material for Consult Australia and its members. Individuals must therefore adhere to the Code of Conduct to support the productive participation by all participants in meetings and in the development of material. Individuals are also expected to actively encourage compliance with the Code of Conduct, by accepting and encouraging rapid actions to address poor, unacceptable, or inappropriate behaviours and breaches of the Code of Conduct.
