As of December 1, 2024, post-secondary institutions in British Columbia are subject to the Public Interest Disclosure Act (PIDA). The PIDA provides a way for public sector employees to report serious or systemic wrongdoing, with protections from reprisal. UBC’s PIDA policy adds to – but does not replace – UBC’s other established policies for dealing with improper conduct, including the Sexual Misconduct Policy, Discrimination Policy, Scholarly Integrity Policy, and the Financial Investigations Policy.
The UBC community is invited to comment on proposed amendments to the Financial Investigations Policy (SC15) by February 19, 2025. Find out more
