I’m honoured to have been engaged by the Department of Premier and Cabinet NSW to deliver Respect at Work training for Ministers and their staff as a key recommendation of the Goward Review.
The training aims to:
- Raise awareness of the legal obligations of Ministers and Chiefs of Staff regarding workplace misconduct and their role in culture change.
- Promote understanding of what constitutes bullying, harassment, and sexual misconduct and how to manage a complaint under the new Respectful Workplaces Policy recently endorsed by the Premier
- Transfer knowledge and skills for prevention and early intervention
- Develop an understanding of formal and informal grievance processes.
- Engage Ministers and Chiefs of Staff in cultural and behavioural changes
Thank you to all of you who reached out in support of this work following recent media reports.
