Leadership Training - Respect in the Workplace
Respect in the Workplace

Preventing Sexual Harassment, Bullying & Discrimination

With the recent changes to the Sex Discrimination Act and Fair Work Act, you now have a ‘positive duty’ to ensure your workplace is free from all forms of unacceptable behaviour.

If your employees don’t understand their obligations and subsequently act inappropriately, your business could be at risk, which is why expertly developed training programs are an essential supplement to having robust policies and procedures.

Respect in the Workplace is a well-rounded training program (with tailored sessions for your Leaders and Employees), designed to provide you and your team with the skills and knowledge required to create a positive workplace culture, where employees feel safe, valued and respected.
