LegislationReferenced in 2 bills
Respect at Work and Other Matters Amendment Bill 2024
This bill makes major reforms to Queensland's anti-discrimination laws, implementing recommendations from the national Respect@Work inquiry, the QHRC's Building Belonging review, and parliamentary committee reports on vilification. It also strengthens sentencing for workplace violence, clarifies judicial immunity, and gives magistrates access to parental leave.
Strengthening Protections for Queensland Workers Amendment Bill 2026
This bill implements workplace anti-discrimination reforms that were passed by the previous government in 2024 but indefinitely delayed. It strengthens Queensland's Anti-Discrimination Act by adding new protections against sex-based harassment and hostile work environments, expanding the attributes protected from discrimination to include homelessness and domestic violence, and requiring employers to proactively prevent discrimination rather than just respond to complaints.
