 As part of the United Nations common system, FAO must exemplify the highest standards of integrity, independence and honesty, to command the full trust of our members, partners and beneficiaries. To achieve that, we must always be informed and empowered to report misconduct. Raise our voice when we feel unfairly treated, or find guidance to interpret the rules so that we may conduct ourselves correctly. Both managers and personnel are responsible for creating a harmonious work environment. Managers have a particular duty to influence the work environment by acting upon any concerns brought to their attention. If you feel bullied or harassed by a colleague or supervisor, speak to your head of office for support to address the issue before it escalates. If you are not comfortable talking with your manager or head of office about the issue, or if you believe they are part of the problem, you can talk to FAO's neutral and impartial Ombuds Office about the way forward. This is a safe and confidential space, where you can get support on how to resolve issues, like work-related disputes, harassment or sexual harassment. You can contact the Ombuds Office by telephone or by email. Other issues might be better handled by the Human Resources Division, or CSH. The division can also support you with HR advice if you have a workplace conflict, as there are HR officers responsible for providing advice and compliance support at both headquarters and FAO's regional offices. At the heart of fostering a culture of integrity, transparency and accountability within the organization is FAO's Independent Ethics Office. It provides formal advice and guidance on ethical standards and dilemmas, specifically as they relate to conflicts of interest and outside activities. The Ethics Office protects FAO personnel against retaliation when they report misconduct in good faith or engage in oversight activities. If you feel you are being retaliated against, check the whistleblower protection policy to see if it applies to your situation and write to this email address or contact the hotline. The Office of the Inspector General, or OIG, is mandated to investigate all types of misconduct at FAO. If you have witnessed or experienced misconduct, such as abuse of power, sexual harassment or fraud, contact OIG on its confidential hotline. You can also contact the staff representative bodies, the Union of General Service staff, and the Association of Professionals in FAO, if you need support on understanding your rights and entitlements. They are the only staff representative bodies advocating for FAO personnel, and can give guidance and support on these issues. You also have access to the staff counsellor for psychosocial assistance to deal with issues like fears, anxiety, loss, and grief. Remember, upholding the highest standards of integrity, transparency, and accountability, translates into building trust among our stakeholders, beneficiaries, and ourselves. We all have a role to play in doing right, together.
