New Research on Class Inclusion at Work (In-Person)
October 15 @ 1:45 pm - 3:30 pm AEDT
Free
The ‘class ceiling’ – the hidden barrier in Australian workplaces.
In a country that prides itself on being the land of the ‘fair go’, does class at work make a difference?
New landmark research by DCA shows how class can be a significant barrier across all aspects of an employee’s life, including recruitment, networking, promotion, and access to career development.
Join us at Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer in Sydney for a presentation of this new research and in-depth discussion about the practical steps that employers can take to build class inclusion at work. The event will cover:
-
understanding class, classism, and how they show up at work
-
why organisations need to prioritise class inclusion
-
what organisational barriers create class exclusive workplaces
-
what actions organisations can take to create class diverse and inclusive workplaces.
The panel includes:
-
Stephen Hosie (he/him), Managing Director and Partner, Boston Consulting Group
-
Brooke Massender (she/her), Partner and Global Head of Pro Bono, Herbert Smith Freehills Kramer
-
Lisa Fowkes (she/her), Director Employment Initiatives, Social Ventures Australia
-
Professor Hari Bapuji (he/him), Professor in Management, Department of Management and Marketing, Melbourne University.
The venue will be open at 1:45pm registration for a 2:00-3:30pm AEDT session that includes 90 minutes for the presentation and panel. This is followed by optional networking and refreshments till 4:00pm AEDT.
