Please join us for our fourth and final forum of the WorkWell Respect Network (WWRN), focused on responding to and reporting gendered violence in the workplace. We will discuss how to identify, respond to, and report work-related gendered violence, including legal obligations (positive duty and OHS requirements), support mechanisms, and both internal and external reporting options.

The WWRN brings together experts, leaders, and industry professionals to discuss strategies, share knowledge, and explore practical solutions to create safer and more inclusive work environments. You can learn more here: https://www.wwrn.com.au
