Workplace sexual harassment is a significant work health and safety hazard, affecting industries across Australia, including the security industry. For senior personnel and security professionals, fostering a respectful workplace is not just an ethical priority—it’s a legal and operational necessity.
The Respect at Work communication toolkit, developed by SafeWork NSW, provides essential resources to help businesses proactively prevent workplace sexual harassment. It offers clear guidance on understanding, managing, and responding to risks, alongside practical tools such as posters, fact sheets, and training materials.
By implementing these strategies, security firms can uphold professional standards, protect workers, and minimize reputational and financial risks. Take action today—empower your team with the right knowledge and support for a safer, more respectful workplace.
While the Toolkit was produced by SafeWork NSW it clearly has a good deal of relevance for all Australian jurisdictions.
