Women’s Health Victoria (WHV) welcomed the opportunity to provide feedback to the Respect@Work consultation on remaining legislative recommendations in March 2022.
The Power to Prevent Coalition, representing over 60 organisations in the legal, health, community, family violence, business and union sectors, is calling on the Australian Government to act now to prevent sexual harassment at work by implementing all remaining recommendations of the Respect@Work report.
This submission welcomes the important inclusion of recovery from violence in the draft National Plan 2022-2032, and notes progress in relation to prevention over the previous decade. However, overall changes during this time in relation to the gendered drivers of violence against women and children have been minimal, and persistent or increasing prevalence rates are of significant concern.
In October 2021, shEqual - WHV’s initiative championing gender equality in advertising - released a national online survey to better understand perceptions of gender equality in the advertising industry.
Gender inequality remains pervasive in the Australian advertising industry, according to the results of a national survey released today.
This submission unpacks the urgent reforms needed to prevent gendered violence and sexual harassment in Victorian workplaces, hold perpetrators accountable, and support victim survivors to recover and receive redress.
This submission largely focuses on the primary prevention of men’s violence against women in line with the focus and expertise of WHV.

The Power to Prevent Coalition, representing over 100 organisations in the legal, health, community, family violence, business and union sectors, strongly supports the recommendations of the Sex Discrimination Commissioner’s report into sexual harassment at work. We call on the Australian Government to take this crucial opportunity to join with civil society to make the changes needed to make Australian workplaces safer, healthier and more respectful for all.
