Roch Interpretation
Circumstances change and new people join. The door to raise a concern stays open, and raising one actually leads to something.
Examples
Compliant
A new hire with a phobia can raise it at any time through a standing channel, and it is addressed.
Not compliant
The only chance to object was a survey at launch a year ago, and there is no route since.
