What are my rights?

Discrimination, bullying & harassment

Everyone has the right to be treated fairly and respectfully in the workplace. Bullying, harassment and discrimination can be unlawful and your workplace owes you a duty of care to avoid risk to your health and safety.

Workplace health & safety

You have the right to work in a safe environment. You are responsible for working in a safe manner and are protected by workers compensation in the event of injury.
