6-7: Structured Review Process
Practices Statement: A structured review process is used to impartially
adjudicate alleged violations.
Practice Description: It is important that review processes are constructed
to avoid abuses of authority and prevent any individual, industry, stakeholder
or agency from exercising undue power or influence over the process. A
structured review process must be outlined in writing which indicates:
• who receives reports of alleged violations,
• who investigates the reports,
• possible outcomes of the investigation,
• who conducts 1st tier (informal) hearings,
• possible outcomes of 1 tier hearings, and
st
• appeal rights following a 2 tier (formal) hearing.
