Overview
The purpose of this course is to train you and provide you with training materials so that you can deliver training internally at your Local Government.
With the increased obligations on Local Government employers as a result of the December 2023 changes to the Sex Discrimination Act 1984 (Cth), this course will equip managers and HR staff to train their own teams to be active bystanders. Equipping staff with skills to prevent, intervene and report sexual harassment and inappropriate behaviour will contribute to a positive culture to attract and retain staff, reduce incidents of sexual harassment, discrimination, and bullying.
Target Audience
HR staff and Managers.
