“We have been rolling out induction awareness around the policy seeing as many staff were not made aware of the group policy. After the awareness, number of disclosures have increased and more staff are accessing the referral support through Bel isi PNG” Female, Workplace Contact Point – Bel isi PNG Subscriber
