Fair decision-making for fair outcomes: A review of the whistleblowing process for DND employees

This report is the third part of a review of the DND’s internal complaints processes. The purpose of this part was to determine whether the DND’s internal whistleblowing process is properly designed to produce fair outcomes for our constituents. The focus of our analysis is on compliance with legislation, process design, and incorporation of procedural fairness principles into policy. Our hope is that the DND’s new process designs will allow for the consistent application of policy and procedural fairness protections at all levels of decision-making.
