Privacy

To effectively consult to organisations on workplace issues, PSI must collect personal, highly sensitive information from both client and candidate.

PSI has strict standards about the treatment of personal information and in particular, the treatment of assessment reports.  We endeavour to conduct all our business in line with the National Privacy Act.

PSI does not use any personal information for marketing purposes nor does it pass this information on to other parties without express permission from the individual/s concerned.

Before assessment, all candidates are asked to read an outline of the assessment and reporting procedures to be utilised. We then request that the candidate sign a “Release of Information” form, permitting us to release the results of the assessment to the recruiting organisation.

Reports should only be shown to those within the recruiting organisation who have a genuine reason for knowing its contents. It will be presented to the individual requesting the assessment in hard copy, and we request any other individuals sighting the document will do so under the guidance of this person. Copies should never be made of the report, and once reviewed it should be returned to a secure storage place.

It is paramount that the following is adhered to:

• The security of the document will be appropriately maintained;
• The client contact has been appropriately briefed by one of our consulting psychologists in the appropriate interpretation of the findings listed in this report; and
• Viewing of the report by other concerned individuals will be conducted under the direct guidance of the client contact.

Transferability of Report Findings - Job-Specific Recommendations
Any given report is prepared with a specific job function in mind. The findings must not be considered transferable to other roles for which the candidate may be considered. If information regarding the candidate is required for different purposes, please contact the report writer to discuss your needs.
