From www.aicd.com.au: Organisations in Australia must adopt proactive anti-discrimination policies, as recent legal changes impose a “positive duty” to prevent workplace harassment and discrimination.

Effective implementation relies on leadership commitment, regular monitoring, and employee involvement in shaping policies, alongside clear reporting channels to ensure accountability.

Boards play a crucial role by overseeing policy adherence and promoting a culture of respect and inclusivity, which helps mitigate risks and enhance employee loyalty.
