Did You Know?

You could be entitled to compensation if you are a victim of sexual harassment in the workplace.

I was bullied by my boss, sent drunken messages and nude photos. I was under the impression there was nothing I could do and every day of work was awful. Sexual Harassment Australia helped out of such a dark time and won me a large settlement during the process.

Sexual Harassment Australia just closed a case for me in Victoria where I was awarded compensation for the unfair dismissal I was handed after the sexual abuse from the CEO leaked out. I didn't realise there was anything I could do until I spoke to someone. I'm so glad I did.
