DCA Data Exposes Workplace Sexual Harassment Truths

Diversity Council Australia

New data from Diversity Council Australia (DCA) has revealed a confronting reality about workplace sexual harassment in Australia: nearly 1 in 4 workers would do nothing if they witnessed sexual harassment – not even check in on the target following the incident.

However, the data also found workplace inclusion can play a significant role in prevention, with workers in inclusive organisations 2 times less likely to experience sexual harassment.

Sexual harassment has been unlawful in Australian workplaces since 1984, yet despite over four decades of investment in policies, awareness raising and training, it remains alarmingly prevalent.
