Record workplace harassment complaints overwhelm system
19 days ago by 𝙈𝙞𝙖 to c/australia
In short:
New figures reveal a record number of Australians are making workplace sexual harassment complaints, but many are waiting months for cases to be investigated.
The rise is likely due to recent legal reforms and greater awareness of workplace rights, rather than an increase in workplace sexual harassment.
What's next?
There is concern the system cannot keep up with the rise in demand, and more money and expertise are needed to handle cases effectively.
