Work is underway on oversight mechanisms to ensure discipline files related to bullying, sexism, misogyny, racism and homophobia are being appropriately dealt with, Commissioner Katarina Carroll assured in an opinion piece in the Courier Mail on Friday.
The move follow's Ms Carroll's evidence at a wide ranging inquiry into the police response to domestic violence, where she agreed parts of the disciplinary process were broken.
The inquiry has heard complaints of assault, harassment and bullying against colleagues are often dealt with via local management resolutions.
It heard examples of the subjects of serious allegations being disciplined via a brief chat with a senior officer with no further action taken.
Ms Carroll agreed that sexism, misogyny and racism existed in parts of the QPS during a hearing in Brisbane last week.
She called for "no confidence" powers which would give her discretion over an officer's career, in line with those held by commissioners in some other states.
The push for no confidence powers reflects "the urgent necessity for a root and branch review" of the QPS dismissal system, the Queensland Council for Civil Liberties says.
"Evidence given to the Inquiry supports the council's long standing argument that the police discipline system is seriously flawed and requires a root and branch reform," Vice-President Terry O'Gorman said.
"Managerial guidance is the equivalent of being hit on the hand with a wet lettuce."
