Discrimination, bullying and harassment have no place in the workplace.

Positive action is needed to reinforce behavioural standards and, in doing so, build inclusive skilled workforces where more people want to start and stay.

Calling it out and taking action, without causing further harm, is one of the top 10 things workplace leaders can do for gender equality (Queensland Women's Strategy 2022–27, p9).

Leaders can start by promoting and displaying zero tolerance for sexual discrimination, bullying and harassment.

You can find out more about a range of initiatives designed to strengthen support to train and retain on the Queensland Government's  Let’s Protect Respect campaign website.
