    Section C C.1 Risk Management and Internal Audit

    Section C C.1 Risk Management and Internal Audit Internal Audit The Directorate’s Audit Committee oversees, on behalf of the Director-General, the Directorate’s governance, risk, compliance and internal control environments, and provides assurance as to their effectiveness. The Committee acts independently of management. The EDD Audit Committee Charter was reviewed and agreed (with only minor amendments) in November 2012. There were no changes to the membership of the Audit Committee during the financial year. Annual and forward audit programs are guided by governance, risk and compliance programs and are supported by an Audit Recommendations Implementation Register. The Directorate’s three-year internal audit program was agreed by the Senior Executive Committee and by the Audit Committee in November 2012, with the program including a balance of compliance and performance audits across the three years. A significant matter of interest for the EDD Audit Committee during this reporting year was the implementation of recommendations identified by the Auditor-General during the 2011-12 financial audit, to improve the control framework in place within the Directorate. By the end of the 2012-13 reporting year the majority of recommendations had been addressed and completed. The Audit Committee specifically congratulated the relevant areas of the Directorate on their work in documenting and improving governance and control processes. Four internal audits were completed during the reporting year, with a further three internal audits undertaken but not yet complete at the end of the year. The internal audits completed and presented to the EDD Audit Committee during the 2012-13 reporting year were: • Follow Up Audit – Territory Venues and Events – November 2012 • Review of credit card usage – May 2013 • Review of the payment of invoices – May 2013 • Review of salary acquittal reports – June 2013 The EDD Audit Committee met on six occasions during 2012-13.

However, far less is known about the association between workplace bullying and suicidal thoughts and behaviour. This systematic review finds there is a lack of high quality epidemiological research identifying if and how workplace bullying uniquely contributes to increased risk of suicidal thoughts and behaviour – this is a substantial gap in the literature. Additional solid evidence identifying suicidal thoughts and behaviours as an outcome, would strengthen the case for prioritising workplace and public health policies and legislation against workplace bullying. *Corresponding Author: Liana Leach.

  • Facts About Bullying

    Facts About Bullying

    MENU Home Facts About Bullying Facts About Bullying This section pulls together fundamental information about bullying, including: Definition State of the Science Statistics Bullying and Suicide Targeted Groups (e.g., LGBTQ) Laws Definition In 2014, the Centers for Disease Control and Department of Education released the first federal uniform definition of bullying for research and surveillance.1 The core elements of the definition include: unwanted aggressive behavior; observed or perceived power imbalance; and repetition of behaviors or high likelihood of repetition. There are many dierent modes and types of bullying. The current definition acknowledges two modes and four types by which youth can be bullied or can bully others. The two modes of bullying include direct (e.g., bullying that occurs in the presence of a targeted youth) and indirect (e.g., bullying not directly communicated to a targeted youth such as spreading rumors). In addition to these two modes, the four types of bullying include broad categories of physical, verbal, relational (e.g., eorts to harm the reputation or relationships of the targeted youth), and damage to property. Bullying can happen in any number of places, contexts, or locations. Sometimes that place is online or through a cellphone. Bullying that occurs using technology (including but not limited to phones, email, chat rooms, instant messaging, and online posts) is considered electronic bullying and is viewed as a context or location. Electronic bullying or cyberbullying involves primarily verbal aggression (e.g., threatening or harassing electronic communications) and relational aggression (e.g., spreading rumors electronically). Electronic bullying or cyberbullying can also involve property damage resulting from electronic attacks that lead to the modification, dissemination, damage, or destruction of a youth’s privately stored electronic information.

  • Ballpark FAQS

    Ballpark FAQS

    Ballpark FAQS How will parking be improved as part of this upgrade? The ACT Government has introduced parking restrictions in the area surrounding the Ballpark along Goyder Street on game days to relieve traffic congestion and to minimise disruption to local residents. Active Canberra has already undertaken a traffic and parking assessment for the sporting precinct, and will work with Roads ACT to make improvements to the current parking arrangements including the formalisation of Kyeema Street. How will noise be addressed? As the Ballpark is in a residential area, the ACT Government understands the importance of keeping noise to acceptable levels, and is looking at how we can ensure disruption to residents in the immediate vicinity is minimised. Although crowd noise is not regulated under the Environment Protection Act 1997 [Section 8 (1) (c)], noise mitigation (i.e. music, PA system) will be a consideration as part of the design. We will be looking at the acoustics of the venue, along with the PA systems to make sure they are installed in the most efficient manner possible to minimise noise spill to near neighbours. In addition, Active Canberra will work with the Canberra Cavalry in developing a Noise and Light Management Plan for the Ballpark. Approval of the plan by the Environment Protection Agency will be sought to ensure it meets all regulatory requirements. Active Canberra will also introduce a curfew, commencing in the 2016/17 season, at the Ballpark that will introduce a restriction on how late games can be played at the venue. The Australian Baseball League (ABL) has also recently introduced new rules for ABL games that assists in reducing the length of games if extra innings are required.

Radliff, PhD,1 Cixin Wang, PhD,2 and Susan M. Swearer, PhD3 Abstract Research has demonstrated a link between internalizing factors and bullying perpetration and peer victimization; however, few studies have examined predictors of cognitive and psychosocial factors, such as locus of control and hopelessness. The current study examined cognitive and psychosocial factors in bullying perpetration and peer victimization in a sample of 469 middle school students. A mediator model of hopelessness was also investigated. Students involved in bullying reported a greater external locus of control compared with peers who were not involved in bullying. Bully- victims endorsed the highest externality. Results showed that hopelessness fully mediated the relationship between verbal/relational victimization and external locus of control for the victim group, but not the bully-victim group. Implications for bullying prevention and intervention efforts are discussed.
