dc.description.abstractThis data snapshot presents the findings from a large-scale national survey of employees who have experienced sexual harassment in an Australian workplace. The survey was conducted in late 2022. 1,465 individuals responded to the survey providing insights into their experiences of workplace sexual harassment, including the nature and impact of the harassment experienced, the response received, as well as opportunities for improved prevention and early intervention strategies.en_US

Monash Gender and Family Violence Prevention Centre, Monash University. doi: 10.26180/22144592<br><br> This research was included in the ANROWS Register of Active Research (RAR).

Despite this recognition, responses remain inadequate. The Australian Human Rights Commission (2018, p.34) highlights that current approaches ‘have failed to prevent and reduce workplace sexual harassment’. Encouragingly, workplaces want guidance on how to best address this issue, providing an opportunity to apply the principles of primary prevention to support the eradication of sexual harassment in workplace settings. In this project we centre victim-survivor insights and lived experience expertise to better understand the perpetration of workplace sexual harassment and to inform strategies and responses that can be implemented by workplaces. <br><br><b>Aims:</b> This project has four key aims: <br><br> 1. To examine opportunities to better identify, prevent and respond to workplace sexual harassment across industry groups and priority populations, <br><br> 2. To create a robust evidence-base on victim-survivors’ views on opportunities for early intervention and improved responses to workplace sexual harassment, <br><br> 3. To examine the degree to which workplace culture presents as a barrier to early intervention and response, including the capacity of bystanders, To generate new insights and workplace focused recommendations to support improved policy and practice. <br><br><b>Methods:</b> Recognising the critical gap in current knowledge, this project will survey 2000 Australians, including victim-survivors and bystanders, to complete a large-scale national study examining the prevention of, and early interventions for, workplace sexual harassment. <br><br> Using a large-scale survey comprising both quantitative and qualitative components this project will enhance current understandings of workplace sexual harassment with a key focus on enhancing early intervention, prevention and response strategies. <br><br> Project findings will be relevant to all Australian state and territory jurisdictions. <br><br><b>Significance:</b> This project will generate the new knowledge needed to inform improved policy and practice responses to workplace sexual harassment across a range of public and private Australian businesses and industries.en_US
