Workplace Discrimination (Summary)

Discrimination in the workplace is that a person is unequally treated on the basis of race, colour, sex, sexual preference, age, physical or mental disability, marital status, family or carer’s responsibilities, pregnancy or breastfeeding, religion, political opinion, nationality or ethnic origin, trade union activity. It can be happened in the job application process, the conditions of employment, benefits and training opportunities, promotions, dismissal, transfers and being fired. However, necessary criticism or advice about your work or behaviour at work can not be defined as discrimination.

If you have been discriminated, you can make a complaint to any of these organisations such as the Australian Human Rights Commission, the Anti-Discrimination Board of New South Wales, Fair Work Australia or the Fair Work Ombudsman. One of these organisation will try to resolve the dispute by investigation, mediation and giving you advice about your rights.
 
To find out which organisation you should complain to, call the Fair Work Australia Help line on 1300 799 675. You can also call the Fair Work Infoline on 13 13 94 or see the website at http://www.fairwork.gov.au/
