IOR President Lisa-Jayne Cook, CEO Miriam Rodway and Past President Graeme Fox met for mediation in December and the IOR is pleased to release the following statement which has been agreed by all parties:
The IOR and Past President Graeme Fox are pleased to announce that they have been able to resolve their differences and look forward to working collaboratively going forward.
Mr Fox and IOR CEO Ms Rodway had a very constructive and positive discussion during the mediation process.
Mr Fox has acknowledged and apologised for comments made which caused significant distress to the CEO, and concern to the Board of Trustees, and which he accepts were unhelpful in bringing their dispute to a successful conclusion. The Board of Trustees have acknowledged and apologised for their treatment of Mr Fox in relation to him raising serious concerns that he had earlier in the year, which they accept exacerbated the situation at the time and caused Mr Fox significant distress.
Both sides look forward to rebuilding the working relationship which had previously been positive and productive and the IOR looks forward to benefitting once more from Mr Fox's significant contributions to the wider sector as well as the work of the Institute itself.

Opportunity For Employers To Influence Future Skills
10 Dec 2024
BESA, on behalf of the Engineering Building Services Skills Authority (EBBSA,) are setting up Sector Groups (SG’s) in occupations within Building Services. The SG’s purpose is to bring employers within specific occupation groups together to determine the roles that exist within that occupational area, thereafter determine a competency framework for these roles. The IOR is pleased to be invited to support this work and to help co-ordinate outputs with its own plans to map skills needs and roles in the RACHP sector.
