Summary: Sexual harassment has never been more in the headlines than it is today, with the high profile David Jones case playing out on the national stage.Yet, almost thirty years since the passage of the Sex Discrimination Act, its prevalence has not diminished. Research has shown that there is significant confusion as to what actions constitute sexual harassment in the workplace, where the 'workplace' can be deemed to begin and end and what organisations can do to eliminate it. In this week's PodRights, Sex Discrimination Commissioner, Elizabeth Broderick discusses these issues with Peter Wilson, national president of the Australian Human Resources Institute, who has labelled sexual harassment 'a corporate cancer'.
