Answer

LINZ’s Speaking Up Policy encourages people to raise concerns about unacceptable or unwelcome behaviour. This means that inappropriate behaviour may be explored and resolved as inappropriate behaviour rather than labelling it as bullying or harassment. LINZ have included all incidents that might have been considered bullying or harassment in the figures below. 2026 (YTD) – 0 2025 – 2 2024 – 2 2023 – 1 2022 – 0 2021 – 3 2020 – 0 2019 – 1 2018 – 2 2017 – 3 LINZ did not collect or report this information in the format requested for the years 2015 and 2016.
