Did you know that many senior managers only become aware sexual harassment has occurred at their workplace when they receive the formal notification from the Australian Human Rights Commission followed closely by an expensive letter of demand from the employee’s ‘no win – no fee’ solicitor.
In 30+ years of assisting employers I have never seen a cheap sexual harassment legal compensation demand. We are talking claims of $70-$80k.
Senior management need to educate themselves on this important area of workplace law.
Hunter Employee Relations has developed a comprehensive user-friendly Employer Guide designed for senior managers on the complex legal area of bullying, harassment, sexual harassment and discrimination.
