(1/3) Everyone has the right to be safe, supported and respected at work.

Our latest report details our findings and recommendations to prevent and respond to sexual harassment in Bakers Delight Holdings’ workplaces.

Everyone deserves to be safe and respected at work. Today's @veohrc report puts Victorian employers and head franchisors on notice of their duty to take steps to prevent sexual harassment in the workplace. #positiveduty

Impressive work by @VEOHRC and @EmilyHowie: "if governments take preventing sexual harassment seriously...and if they do really want to remove that burden from people who suffer harm...we need to boost the regulatory powers given to commissions like ours” https://t.co/IZaofliHTT

I'm so looking forward to joining @TIAustralia to talk about what's next for bringing integrity into our politics after the election.

Come join the conversation at 1pm Tuesday, 7 June.

Congratulations to Prime Minister-elect Anthony Albanese and the Australian Labor Party on the federal election victory.

We’re so excited to work alongside a Government committed to implementing the #UluruStatement in full. It’s clear that #HistoryIsCalling.

It's beyond time airlines made travel properly accessible for PWD, without these insults to people's dignity. @Graemeinnes you're a national treasure and my hero https://t.co/WJNQ9ieeKQ

Woke up this morning feeling very blessed to be disabled - I reckon my parents are pretty happy about it too.

Feeling sorry for us and our families doesn’t help. Treating us equally, and giving us the choice and control over our own lives does

It’s been a bruising start to the federal election campaign for #LGBTIQ people, particularly our trans and gender diverse communities. Please stand with us and sign our open letter to political parties today #auspol 🌈

"The restriction of voting rights for people in prison is a form of disenfranchisement which heavily
affects already marginalised people." Spot on from @Lux_AI and @thevalsmob
People in prison should absolutely have their voices heard in our democracy.

[Victorian LGBTIQ+ Commissioner @VicLGBTIQ]

My allyship is non-negotiable.

"This article is a defence of trans people, because sadly they still need it. I would prefer trans and gender diverse people be celebrated, loved and supported, not attacked."

7 months later, millions of people displaced, children starving, minorities targeted and persecuted.

Yet we still haven’t offered a single additional refugee place for people from Afghanistan

Don’t miss this excellent @rightsagenda report for a clear-eyed articulation of the real and present threat that corporate influence poses to Australian democracy. https://t.co/mzaAJCN0NU

#Breaking: Our research with @mwcvic shows that 78% of Australians agree that people already living in our communities - our friends, neighbours, colleagues - should have a pathway to permanent residency

Everyone should be able to plan for their future

One of the best flag drops I've seen, show us some of the banners and posters you have for #InvasionDay2022. The flag is 20 meters wide by 10 meters long #AbolishAusDay #SurvivalDay #DayofMourning #AbolishAustraliaDay

A quiet reminder that when Justice Kenneth Hayne, head of royal commission into banking misconduct, refused to smile or even shake the hand of the Treasurer during a photo op in 2019, it was not considered the stuff of national calamity.

@TamePunk is making a similar point.

Novak Djokovic spent four nights detained at an immigration hotel in Melbourne before a judge ordered his release.

Hundreds of others in indefinite immigration detention in Australia aren't so lucky. https://t.co/GqyyIW3Jtj
