Our Watch is calling on Australia’s businesses to lead the change and stop sexual harassment at work. Everyone deserves to be safe, supported and respected at work. This means that sexual harassment, disrespect, and discrimination have no place.
When you lead the change, you foster innovation and growth in your business. By creating a culture of safety and respect, you help protect your staff, your brand, and the wider community.
In Australia, one in four women has been sexually harassed at work in the past 12 months.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
Every business has a responsibility and opportunity to prevent sexual harassment.
