RSPhys Equity and Diversity Committee Message

This week we forward a report on the National Inquiry into workplace sexual harassment from Kate Jenkins, the Australian Government Sex Discrimination Commissioner and Australian Human Rights Commission. 

As she states: 

“I call on all employers to join me in creating safe, gender-equal and inclusive workplaces, no matter their industry or size. This will require transparency, accountability and leadership. It will also require a shift from the current reactive model, that requires complaints from individuals, to a proactive model, which will require positive actions from employers.”
