A damning independent report has found Fire and Emergency's workplace culture is poor and its complaints process deepens trauma experienced by complainants. The report was conducted for the Public Service Commission by Belinda Clarke. It finds FENZ hasn't changed enough since the 2019 Judge Coral Shaw report which found harassment and bullying was endemic throughout the organisation. RNZ reporter Ruth Hill is at the new conference where the review has been released.
