PERTH – The Western Australian government on Tuesday tabled a progress report in Parliament on the Parliamentary Inquiry into the fly-in, fly-out mining industry, outlining the actions being taken across key areas such as primary prevention, data and research, refocused regulatory framework, and better support and advocacy for victims of workplace sexual harassment.
Johnston noted that improvements introduced through the state government's Mental Awareness, Respect and Safety Program are funding critical support for victim-survivors and developing resources to support individuals and employers to prevent and respond to workplace violence. Other ongoing initiatives include an e-learning program delivered by the Sexual Assault Resource Centre, a Respect in Mining pilot initiative to engage workers about gendered drivers of violence, an independent Regulatory Capability Review and the development of a Code of Practice for accommodation facilities.
“The government is doing important and nation-leading work to stamp out sexual violence in the workplace. Everyone has a right to feel safe and supported at work,” Women's Interests Minister“Workplace sexual harassment is not a women's issue; it a societal issue which all organisations, employers and individuals have a responsibility to address. The message is clear. We need more women to work in this sector and we need them to be treated with respect.
“CME and its member companies also continue widespread and concentrated efforts to increase diversity across the WA mining and resources sector, which aligns with another recommendation to industry from the Inquiry, which was to work to lift the percentage of women in the workforce," Tomkinson said.Warren Pearce
