Supporting Effective Communication – Restriction
Effective communication is essential to enable us to support clients. Your communication or
behaviour continues to raise concerns for ACC’s ability to manage resources fairly or the health
safety of our staff, therefore this letter serves as a notification that you have been placed on a
communication restriction with ACC.
On <insert date> and <insert date>, we wrote to you to let you know that your communication or
behaviour with ACC was not considered appropriate and we asked for a change.
Unfortunately, ACC have not identified a change in your communication and behaviour. On <date /
date range> your <describe communication/behaviour> was considered <explain why it was
inappropriate>.
Communication Restrictions
The details of the communication <restriction/restrictions> <is/are> as follows:
<INSERT AS MANY OR AS FEW OF THE BELOW AS REQUIRED>
[WHEN THE CLIENT CAN HAVE CONTACT]
[OPTION 1] Correspondence with you will be on a <contact day>
. If I am unavailable, another staff
member will attempt to action any urgent matters.
[OPTION 1 END] [WHAT THE CLIENT CAN RAISE]
[OPTION 1] As you have consistently raised topics unrelated to the claim, specifically <insert
raised irrelevant/inappropriate topic>. Only claim related correspondence will be replied to.
[OPTION 1 END] [OPTION 2] Due to the excessive amount of personal information requests received by you and it
being impractical for ACC to respond to each individual request, ACC will provide a file copy every
<insert frequency>.
[OPTION 2 END] [WHO THE CLIENT CAN CONTACT - only applies to clients on email re-directions]
[OPTION 1] All correspondence with ACC will be re-directed to your <Insert person eg Recovery
member title>, so that one person across ACC can coordinate a response to you. The <insert
REV53
GOV-032857
person, eg Recovery member title> currently managing your claim will remain in place for the
foreseeable future.
[OPTION 1 END] [HOW THE CLIENT CAN MAKE CONTACT]
[OPTION 1] Due to the inappropriate manner of your communication, all further correspondence
will be by <DELETE ONE - written communication/phone> only, any <DELETE ONE - emails
received from you will be filed away/calls received by you will be terminated>. This will ensure that
everything is communicated clearly and efficiently.
[OPTION1 END] [WHERE THE CLIENT CAN MAKE CONTACT]
[OPTION 1] Due to the inappropriate manner of your communication and behaviour all further
communication will now take place <insert where>.
[OPTION 1 END]
Anything <that your Recovery Partner/ACC> considers requires an urgent response, will be
responded to accordingly.
This plan and the listed <restriction/restrictions>, will remain in place until there is an improvement
in your communication or behaviour. It will be reviewed every six months at a minimum to see
whether the communication and behaviour has changed and to ensure the plan and restrictions
remain appropriate. You will be advised of any changes made to the plan.
This applies to all claims related communication with ACC, including the management of any
disputes.
ACC may disclose to third parties that this plan is in place (if the plan impacts or delays our
communication with them).
