SEXUAL HARASSMENT TRAINING

In sexual harassment compliance training, employees are presented with a series of true or false questions aimed at reinforcing their understanding of workplace policies and behaviors. These questions cover various aspects of sexual harassment, including its definition, reporting procedures, and appropriate responses. For instance, employees learn that sexual harassment policies apply to all individuals within the company, regardless of their position, and that a zero-tolerance approach means that no instances, regardless of severity, will be tolerated. They are also reminded of the importance of promptly reporting incidents, seeking guidance when unsure, and understanding that sexual harassment can manifest in verbal and non-verbal forms. Through these questions, employees gain a clearer understanding of their rights and responsibilities in maintaining a safe and respectful workplace environment.

THE FASHION WEEK TOUR have developed General Rules, Policies and Safe Job Procedures that include safe work practices and specific Codes of Practice to reduce identified hazards, that cannot be eliminated or reduced by engineering controls.

 

Safety is a core value at THE FASHION WEEK TOUR

We are committed to doing everything possible to eliminate and reduce work site incidents.

You must be able to understand and comply with the OH&S Act, manufacturers’ instructions and TFWT policies and rules.
