Workplace Diversity Project

Mental health and wellbeing is important to the performance and productivity of you work force. A poor workplace culture will affect your staff’s mental health and wellbeing and can also lead to loss of reputation, reduced staff attraction, low recruitment, affect profits and increase the risk of WorkCover claims. 

So, what can we do to improve your staff’s mental health and wellbeing?

Introducing our Workplace Diversity Project.

Together, we’ll help you create a great workplace where all staff members feel accepted, supported, and included. Through the Workplace Diversity Project, your supervisors can become diversity and inclusion leaders, equipped to improve the overall culture and environment of each of your workplaces, prevent mental injuries and improve mental health and wellbeing for frontline workers.

This program was run successfully in over 175 businesses and delivered a 10% increase in mental health and wellbeing across the board. Other positive outcomes included increase diversity in recruitment, improved team management by supervisors and improved staff retention.

Our dedicated project team will provide universal, end-to-end solutions for your organisation, work with your HR team to develop robust policies and procedures, as well as offer one on one mentoring with frontline leaders and access to resources.

Training and other services

Gender Lens Workplace Assessment 

To what degree has your organisation created a holistic safe system of work, and effectively communicated it to all staff? The beginning of the workplace process to a more diverse and inclusive culture is a Workplace Assessment.  With a Tradeswomen Australia assessment through a gender lens we cover people, structure, and process and benchmark your organisation and share practical solutions for improvement.

Creating Diverse and Inclusive Workplace Environments

This course on diversity, inclusion and equity will enable you and your team to create a workplace environment that embraces differences, challenges unconscious biases, and develops healthy respect between teams.

Bystander Action

This course will help your team become empowered to act when faced with harmful behaviours at work.

Unconscious Bias in Recruitment

Participants are introduced to the concept of unconscious bias, types of bias that affect the recruitment process (such as gender, age, culture), encouraged to pinpoint, challenge, and outsmart their unconscious biases and create equity within the organisation.

Bespoke Training

If your organisation wants to create greater awareness and improvements, or challenge particular issues, within the organisation, we are more than happy to build the perfect training package for you.

Recruitment Review

Is your organisation having issues with achieving diversity targets in your recruitment? Are you finding it hard to reach the right applicants? Our team will work with you to review your recruitment processes, practices, marketing, and advertising so it reaches a wider tradeswomen audience and assists in making your recruitment campaign more impactful.
