    Submission on the Workplace Gender Equality Act 2012

    The Workplace Gender Equality Act 2012 will have far reaching effects on the gender
    composition of Australian businesses in the private sector. The Reporting Regime developed
    for implementation of the Act must be harmonised with other reporting regimes which are
    already in place, or under development. The Reporting Regime must also include ways in
    which characteristics, such as disability, Aboriginality or migrant background can be included
    in reports in such a way as to promote ease of comparison between companies, and a self
    regulating incentive for companies to improve their performance. Company reports should
    be publicly available on the Agency website.
