There is much speculation as to the future of diversity, equity and inclusion programs in Australian businesses given recent political and workplace discussions at home and abroad.
While much of the speculation about Australian businesses appears to be focussing on political values and the “business case” for or against diversity programs, it is critical that Australian business leaders consider the psychosocial risk perspective on gender diversity and ensure that their decision-making on this issue aligns with their obligations under work health and safety laws.
Under the model Work Health and Safety Act (which has been adopted in all states and territories, other than Victoria) persons conducting a business or undertaking (PCBUs) must ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, workers and other persons are not exposed to risks to their psychological or physical health and safety, including risks from psychosocial hazards such as sexual and gender-based harassment. In order to comply with this duty, PCBUs are required to implement the most effective control measures for sexual and gender-based harassment that are reasonably practicable in the circumstances.Publication
