  1. (1)

    This section applies if the CEO terminates the employment of a member of the staff referred to in subsection 47(1) and the CEO believes, on reasonable grounds, that the staff member’s conduct or behaviour, or any part of it:

    1. (a)

      amounts to serious misconduct by the staff member; and

    2. (b)

      is having, or is likely to have, a damaging effect on:

      1. (i)

        the professional self‑respect or morale of some or all of the members of the staff of the ACC; or

      2. (ii)

        the reputation of the ACC with the public, or any section of the public, or with an Australian or overseas government, or with a law enforcement agency or a foreign law enforcement agency.

    Note: See section 29 of the Public Service Act 1999 for termination of the employment of a member of the staff referred to in subsection 47(1) of this Act.
