Complaint Feedback Mechanism, or CFM, is the system and related processes that give aid recipients the opportunity
to comment, make suggestions, express gratitude or criticize the products and/or services
they are receiving.
YFCA's CFM Principles
Transparency
The complaint process and the possible outcomes of the complaint should be clearly explained and those involved should be kept informed of the progress of the complaint and the reasons for any decisions.
Confidentiality
This means that information about a complaint is only provided to those people who need to know about it,
in order for the complaint to be dealt with properly. YFCA's feedback database MUST NOT be shared with
irrelevant parties, internal or external.
Timeliness
YFCA aims to resolve sensitive complaints within 3 days, inquiries within 7 days, and unsensitive complaints within 14 days of receiving. In the event that a complaint cannot be resolved within this timeframe the complainant will be informed about the progress made to date and when they can expect to receive a response.
