The CCC reported that employees ranked policy non-compliance, mishandling confidential information, and bullying and harassment among the highest workplace corruption risks.
The CCC reported that 55% said they had witnessed or suspected corruption in the preceding five years, and 55% of that group had not reported it.
The CCC reported that 72% would report corruption, but only 33% expected meaningful action and 52% expected personal repercussions.
In the body's own words
- Finding
Public sector employees are more likely to feel comfortable lodging a complaint with the CCC than they are lodging a complaint within their workplace.
- Finding
There is some scepticism around the outcomes of reporting corruption; one in three agree meaningful action would be taken (33%), but similar proportions disagree (36%).
Findings and recommendations
Allegations are not findings. A commission's finding or opinion of corrupt conduct or misconduct is not a finding that a person is guilty of a criminal offence, and the commissions say so in their reports.
No findings or recommendations are reproduced in this record. This does not establish that the report contains none.
Published responses
No published response was found.
Coverage
This publisher
- Reports from 1991 to about 2011 are listed on the CCC site but many pages link no report document; those records carry the page summary only, with findings and recommendations not extracted.
- Scanned reports without a text layer are not OCR'd; their findings and recommendations are not extracted.
- Findings and opinions are not extracted except where a report states it makes no finding about any person (section 48B of the Crime and Corruption Act 2001). Pre-2025 reports state outcomes in narrative form, which is not converted into findings.
- Recommendations are extracted only from a complete numbered run; reports that number recommendations differently, or set them inside narrative chapters only, are marked not_extracted.
- Government responses are recorded where the CCC report or public hearing page links one; the responses themselves (often Queensland Parliament tabled papers or ministerial statements) are linked, not fetched.
- The 1989 Fitzgerald Inquiry report, which the CCC hosts, is a commission of inquiry report and is not included here.
