QWWS supports Sexual Harassment in Australia Research
A national project addressing workplace sexual harassment is being
undertaken by Paula McDonald from the Queensland University of
Technology and Sara Charlesworth from the University of South
Australia. The researchers are interested in conducting confidential
phone interviews with people who have experienced workplace sexual
harassment. The aim of this phase of the project is to understand the
impacts of sexual harassment on those who have experienced it and to
contribute to more effective policy development and implementation in
workplaces and by human rights organisations.
If you or someone you know has experienced sexual harassment and
would be willing to talk about these issues, please contact Paula or
Sara for more information.
