\"\"CLBC has processes and tools to make decisions in a fair and consistent way. CLBC staff seek to carefully and clearly explain decisions, and will do their best to resolve concerns in a prompt and respectful way.<\/p>\n

If you have a concern, or disagree with a decision, you can request to speak with your local manager. Many concerns can be resolved in this way.<\/p>\n

CLBC also offers an option to have a concern heard through the complaints process. The complaints resolution process is designed to be accessible, person-centred, responsive and fair. If you submit a formal complaint, CLBC is committed to reviewing your concern in a timely way.<\/p>\n

    The review process<\/h2>\n

    The CLBC staff person conducting the review will contact you directly to discuss the complaint and provide a written response to your complaint. The timeline for resolution will depend on the complexity of your complaint.<\/p>\n

    The response will include a decision, recommendation(s) to resolve the situation and information about additional steps you may wish to take if you are not satisfied with the decision.<\/p>\n

    If you are still concerned<\/h2>\n

    If you are not satisfied with the review, you can request that your complaint be escalated to the next stage of the complaints process or contact CLBC\u2019s Quality Assurance Office directly at 1-855-664-7972<\/strong>\u00a0or ComplaintResolutionCLBC@gov.bc.ca<\/a>.<\/p>\n
