Under the Sex Discrimination Act 1984 (Cth) (SD Act), businesses have a positive duty to take reasonable and proportionate measures (i.e., actions) to eliminate, as far as possible sex discrimination, sexual harassment, sex-based harassment, behaviours that create a hostile workplace environment on the ground of sex and related acts of victimisation occurring in a work context or in connection with work (unlawful workplace behaviours).
It is important to remember that just responding to reports of unlawful workplace behaviours may not be enough to satisfy the positive duty – preventative action is required.
