The Ministry of Defence (MOD) externally publishes some Service and whole force (covering both Service personnel and civilian employees) policy and procedure documents, but does not routinely publish those that are civilian-only.
Attached is a copy of the Civilian Mediation policy and the bullying, harassment and discrimination complaints policy. MOD officials have also reviewed our response to a previous Question (UIN 7288) that you tabled on 18 December 2023, and we have subsequently attached a copy of the Civilian Formal Bullying, Harassment and Discrimination Complaint process too.
