We acknowledge your right to privacy while recognising that personal information is required to be collected, maintained and administered in order to provide a safe working environment and a high standard of quality.

The information we collect is used to provide services in a safe and healthy environment with individual requirements, to meet duty of care obligations, to initiate appropriate referrals, and to conduct business activities to support those services.

How Can you Access and Correct Your Personal Information?

You are able to have access to all information that is recorded about you and to let us know if it is not accurate; and we will make the necessary changes. To access your information please talk to the person who you usually talk about your services with.
