Consequence of Error/Judgement

Interactions with applicants and students, other UBC staff including faculty representatives, staff at other academic institutions and the public are largely unsupervised, and tact and professionalism is required at all times.

Negative interactions can result in damage to UBC s reputation and discourage qualified applicants from attending UBC. Judgment is required when an issue needs to be referred to another staff person or another office.

Inappropriate decisions can result in someone feeling as if they have been given the run-around and generally poor service by UBC.

The Document Coordinator is expected to exercise judgment and discretion when possible and, when the advice or guidance of a more senior staff person is required, the incumbent is expected to provide all relevant information as well as possible solutions when appropriate.

The improper disposal of confidential information can create liabilities for UBC with respect to its duties under the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act, damage UBC s reputation, and discourage qualified applicants from attending UBC.
