No one deserves to face discrimination, bullying and harassment in the workplace. Antunes Lawyers can assist employees with discrimination claims, help employers deal with accusations, and create workplace policies that reduce the risk of future incidents.
The workplace can be a delicate environment. A robust discrimination, bullying, and harassment workplace policy can fortify your workplace against issues that may arise.
In Australia, there are various anti-discrimination laws which place the responsibility on employers to ensure that their employees are safe from unfair treatment. A comprehensive policy, drafted by a lawyer, can improve workplace culture, and establish procedures to ensure that discrimination, harassment, and bullying claims are addressed before they become a bigger problem.
No matter how small or large an incident is, if you are a victim of workplace discrimination, bullying, or harassment, you may be entitled to compensation or other remedies. Our lawyers can inform you of your rights and prepare a discrimination claim on your behalf.
Antunes Lawyers have been exceptional to work with. Tim and his team are always willing to go the extra mile with proving me the support and advice I need in all my employment matters. An amazing firm I would highly recommend.
