In Australia, national and state laws cover equal employment opportunity and anti-discrimination in the workplace. You're required by these laws to create a workplace free from discrimination and harassment. It’s important that as an employer, you understand your rights and responsibilities under human rights and anti-discrimination law.
By putting effective anti-discrimination and anti-harassment procedures in place in your business you can improve productivity and increase efficiency. The Australian Human Rights Commission has a range of fact sheets and brochures to help you develop effective policies and best practice guidelines.
