In light of recent public posts, news headlines and investigations of sexual harassment occurrences in the workplace, having a sexual harassment policy in place for your Company has become more important than ever. The purpose of this Policy is to eliminate, as far as possible, sexual harassment in the workplace.
This policy includes:
- References to legislation
- The Company’s aim
- Definition and examples
- Consequences
Whilst having a Sexual Harassment Policy in place is vital, there are other measures a Company can take to ensure they build a workplace culture free from Sexual Harassment. Training and educating every individual within the organisation is fast becoming an essential tool for change.
We have a Sexual Harassment online training program (including a Mining specific version) to support you in this endeavour. For more information, please click here.
This Policy does not replace legislation.
