Course Overview

This course provides a robust ethical and legal framework for identifying, preventing, and responding to bullying and harassment within the disability sector. It focuses on the customization of workplace culture to ensure a “Zero Tolerance” environment that protects both vulnerable participants and the frontline staff who support them.

Aligned with the NDIS Code of Conduct and Fair Work Australia standards, this training equips participants with the skills to distinguish between performance management and bullying, and between accidental offense and systemic harassment. Participants will learn how to foster a safe, psychologically healthy workplace where “calling out” inappropriate behavior is supported and protected.

What You’ll Learn

  • Define workplace bullying, harassment, and discrimination within the specific context of disability service delivery.

  • Master the “Legal Obligations” under the Fair Work Act and Work Health and Safety (WHS) laws regarding psychosocial hazards.

  • Identify the unique dynamics of “Lateral Violence” and “Upward Bullying” in team-based support environments like SIL houses.

  • Recognize “Targeted Harassment” related to a participant’s or staff member’s protected attributes (race, gender, disability, or orientation).

  • Implement immediate “Bystander Intervention” strategies to safely de-escalate and address inappropriate behavior in real-time.

  • Navigate the “Formal Grievance Process,” ensuring confidentiality, natural justice, and protection from victimization for all parties.

  • Execute “Trauma-Informed Investigations” that prioritize the safety and wellbeing of the person reporting the behavior.

  • Apply “Culture Building” techniques to transition from a reactive “policing” model to a proactive “inclusive” workplace environment.

Designed For

  • NDIS provider directors and senior leadership teams.

  • HR professionals and WHS officers in the disability and aged care sectors.

  • Team leaders and SIL house leads responsible for staff supervision.

  • Support workers and psychosocial recovery coaches.

  • Union delegates and workplace health and safety representatives.
