Professional Standards

The Anglican Diocese of Perth does not tolerate harassment or abuse in its Church community.  Such issues are taken very seriously.

The Anglican Church is committed to ensuring that all people associated with the Church can participate in a healthy, safe and responsible environment. 

When the welfare of any member of the Anglican community is impacted by misconduct or abuse, the Church will endeavour to provide immediate support to everyone affected. 

Since 2004, the Professional Standards Unit in Perth has served all three dioceses in Western Australia (Perth, Bunbury and North West Australia) in professional standards matters.

 

The Professional Standards Unit has several responsibilities which include:

  • Setting professional and ethical standards throughout the Anglican Church in WA;
  • Receiving and managing complaints of sexual misconduct and abuse by Church Workers;
  • Education and awareness in the area of child protection and sexual misconduct;
  • Advising and assisting Church Workers and members of the public with queries on a variety of professional and ethical issues within the Church.  

The work of the Professional Standards Unit relies on information provided by the Church and wider community.  If you suspect that someone is being abused or taken advantage of by anyone associated with the Anglican Church, please contact the Director of the Professional Standards Unit on (08) 9325 7455 or by email.
