A new anti-discrimination bill and human rights bill

On 27 September 2022, the Anti-Discrimination and Human Rights Legislation Amendment (Respect at Work) Bill 2022 (Bill) was introduced to the House of Representatives. The Bill is a response to the recommendations of the 2020 Respect@Work Report (Report) and is yet to be passed.
