A recent ANROWS report on Workplace Technology-Facilitated Sexual Harassment (WTFSH) found that one in seven Australian adults surveyed admitted to engaging in this form of harassment at work.
With new technologies, sexual harassment can now happen in different ways in the workplace. This raises a critical question: how can Australian employers prevent this and be supported to respond effectively to the potential harms?
As October is National Safe Work Month in Australia, this event spotlighted the work of the eSafety Gender and Tech team and hosted a special guest panel, to examine responses to the ANROWS report findings. They explored how Australian employers can take proactive measures to prevent WTFSH, and the importance of gender-competent leadership in the workplace.
