Example indicators - work place settings
Below are some key resources that outline outcome domains for organisational settings. These resources can support you in developing indicators and benchmarks for the work place setting:
- The Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) - WGEA has an employer of choice citation for gender equality. This leading practice recognition program aims to encourage, recognise and promote active commitment to achieving gender equality in Australian workplaces. WGEA indicators are listed here.
- The Our Watch Workplace Equality and Respect standards and indicators - support organisations to assess organisational practices and policies and identify key actions to ensure that gender equality and respect are at the centre of your workplace.
