Abstract

The passage overnight of the Workplace Gender Equality Act 2012 (Cth) has been lauded as a significant improvement on its predecessor, the Equal Opportunity for Women in the Workplace Act 1999. The focus of the new legislation is, as its title suggests, on gender equality. According to Helen Conway, director of the Equal Opportunity for Women in the Workplace Agency, it represents a more contemporary approach to the issue of discrimination, particularly in relation to family and caring responsibilities.
