Respect in the Workplace Training

Regardless of your business size or resources, all Australian employers now have a legal obligation to take proactive and meaningful action to prevent unlawful conduct from occurring in the workplace or in connection with work. With the recent changes to the Fair Work Act and Sex Discrimination Act, you now have an increased positive duty to take proactive steps to prevent sexual harassment, discrimination and bullying in your workplace.

Now is the time to ensure your business is meeting its obligations and your team is adequately educated and informed of their rights and responsibilities.

 

Overview

Our Respect in the Workplace training is a well-rounded and interactive session designed to provide your team with the skills and knowledge required to create a positive workplace culture where employees feel safe, valued and respected.

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

Our experienced, qualified facilitators deliver personalised workshops designed to increase participants’ knowledge and understanding, while helping you meet your positive duty and health & safety obligations.
