Gender and workplace cyber-abuse: Understanding the risk, preventing the harm

The technologies that help us collaborate, communicate and stay connected at work can also create new opportunities for gendered abuse. From exclusion in group chats and intrusive monitoring through workplace platforms to technology-facilitated sexual harassment, digital tools can create new opportunities for gendered harm, and new challenges for prevention.

Join us for a one-hour lunchtime webinar to explore groundbreaking new research on workplace cyber-abuse and the practical steps organisations can take to create safer, more respectful online environments.

You’ll hear key findings from a major new study on workplace cyber-abuse from Dr Jacko Jackson, research lead on the project, and be among the first to access new evidence-based prevention resources. The project was funded through the eSafety Commissioner’s Preventing Tech-based Abuse of Women Grants Program – an Australian Government initiative.

Following the presentation, Jacko will be joined by Ani Lamont, the Gender and Tech team lead at the eSafety Commissioner’s Office, for a timely conversation about the realities of workplace cyberabuse, what the research tells us about risk and prevention, and how organisations can better respond to emerging online harms.

Whether you're a leader, HR professional, workplace safety practitioner, policymaker or advocate, this webinar will offer fresh insights, practical tools and expert perspectives on one of the most pressing workplace challenges of the digital age.
