Has an OIQ employee not treated you suitably? Did they not respond to your request promptly?
Anyone who interacts with the OIQ is entitled to a quality customer experience. You can file a complaint if you have not been treated fairly, respectfully, or equitably.
Our complaint-handling policy is there to ensure the continuous improvement of our services. It helps us respond effectively to those who may be dissatisfied following an interaction with our staff.
In these cases, you must file a report. Go to the Reporting page to learn more and to fill out the form.
The OIQ deals diligently with all complaints received. When submitting your complaint, please include the following information in your message:
It is important to note that some specific topics or areas cannot be challenged through a complaint. Some examples are given below.
The complaint policy also does not apply to professional inspection and illegal practice.
If you are in the process of becoming a member of the OIQ and disagree with a decision regarding your status, you can file a complaint. If you still do not agree with the decision, you can file a complaint with the Commissioner for admission to professions. The mission of the Commissioner is to ensure fair and effective access to the professions governed by a professional order. As such, any person who wishes to become an engineer and is of the view that their file has not been adequately handled, can file a complaint.
Once the complaint is filed, the analyst transmits their conclusions to the commissioner, who can then make recommendations or intervene with the OIQ to help clarify the situation or to unblock it.
