Closing the Gap Includes Family Violence Targets
Victoria is the first state to introduce a Gender Equality Bill, an important step in closing the gender pay gap, improving gender equality and all levels of the public sector workforce, and reducing workplace sexual harassment.
The Bill requires public sector organisations, universities and local councils to develop and implement Gender Equality Action Plans every four years.
It will also see monitoring systems established to investigate performance in areas like flexible work, pregnancy, parental leave and superannuation in public organisations.
