These interactive and experiential workshops focus on problem solving and reflective practice, to create an understanding of workplace behaviour standards and expectations, and to build capability to ensure a safe and respectful workplace. Our facilitators use a range of proven adult learning methods (relevant scenarios, small group discussions and activities).
Participants will also be introduced to a range of Commission frameworks and resources, including the interactive sexual harassment support and response tool, to support ongoing actions to comply with the law and create respectful workplace culture.
