A message from the Commissioner

Dr Niki Vincent

Equality or diversity and inclusion – How does your organisation stack up?

At the EOC we work with a range of businesses and organisations in South Australia who want to be proactive about equality, diversity and inclusion in the workplace. These businesses typically find they are:
•   At risk of receiving complaints of discrimination or harassment
•   Spending time and money on managing complaints
•   Not sure if their business is taking advantage of the benefits of equality, diversity and inclusion in the workplace. This could include more diverse and innovative approaches to problem solving, stronger team collaboration or better understanding the needs of a broader customer base.

Follow this link and answer just 6 questions. If you answer no to any of them, your business’s workplace culture may need a helping hand. That’s where Equal Opportunity Consulting can help.

By working with our EO Consulting team, your business will have insight into what needs to change in your workplace and how you can make it happen.
