Transport Inspector's Name Badge survey

Recently at the Local Consultative Committee the Department advised of the new requirement for your badges to now have your full name rather than your Q number on them. Delegates raised safety concerns and explained that the reason the Q number badges were provided was to reduce the risk of members of the public automatically having their name to then look up and gain personal information on them to take action against the individual. The Department have responded saying “Our Safety Advisor and the department’s Internal Security Unit have been consulted on this matter. There is no quantitative data or evidence to support a negative impact concerning workplace health and safety in displaying the full name on a TI’s name badge. “

We need to know how members feel about this decision – please fill out the below very short survey.
