Activity details
Building the pipeline of new workers including increased participation of workers from priority cohorts to better reflect service mutuality.
This activity is part of a broader activity to enhance workforce development for the family and sexual violence workforces and build capabilities for all workforces intersecting with family violence.
Implementation progress update
Human resources and hiring managers across family violence and sexual assault services have engaged in awareness raising of workforce mutuality through the Recruiting for Diversity program. This involved 6 face to face and online workshops to deepen understanding of how to attract and retain diverse workers. 123 workers participated in these sessions.
Learnings from these workshops have been incorporated into the online Recruitment Insights resource. Work continues on scoping initiatives that support organisations to embed culturally safe, inclusive and equitable workplace policies and practices as part of the Family Violence Industry Plan's Second Rolling Action Plan, Framing the Future.
