Respect in the Workplace

A manager’s role is becoming increasingly complex. Not only are they required to manage functions, deliver results and lead people, but they must comply with the many laws and regulations governing workplaces.

The Respect@Work findings has resulted in it being mandatory for workplaces to have in place policies, training and for managers undergo annual refresher training in relation to discrimination, harassment, sexual harassment and bullying.  

In addition, the Positive Duty amendment to the Sex Discrimination Act 1984 means that all workplaces, regardless of size, must be proactive in their management of sexual harassment and related. Workplaces can now be subject to a random audit to determine compliance with all requirements.

Would your business pass a random audit?

This half day workshop will provide managers with an understanding of what the current workplace laws in relation to discrimination, harassment, sexual harassment and bullying and the specific responsibilities of every manager.
