Creating and maintaining a safe and healthy workplace culture is critical to driving high performance and success at any organisation. At Intersection, we specialise in assisting Boards, leaders and organisations to create safe, respectful and inclusive workplaces through leading practice.
Our unique team of social policy and legal professionals, led by Founder and Principal Natasha de Silva, has deep expertise in gender equality, intersectionality, discrimination, human rights and workplace culture reform.
The team at Intersection led and authored the ground-breaking Respect@Work National Inquiry into Sexual Harassment in Australian Workplaces which:
recommended the introduction of the positive duty to prevent sexual harassment and other related behaviours
developed the prevention framework which underpins the seven positive duty standards.
Our Respect@Work Expertise
Together with former Sex Discrimination Commissioner Kate Jenkins AO, our Principal Natasha de Silva led the world-first Respect@Work National Inquiry as Senior Policy Executive at the Australian Human Rights Commission.
As authors of Respect@Work and the Respect@Work prevention framework which underpins the seven positive duty standards, Intersection’s understanding of both the intent and practical implementation of these standards in the workplace is without comparison.
Our intersectional approach
In order to build and maintain safe, respectful and inclusive workplaces, nuanced approaches are required that reflect the diverse, lived experience of employees, and the diversity of workplaces in which they work. We bring an intersectional lens to our work to develop policy and practical solutions that assist organisations to attract and retain diverse talent, enhance their performance and comply with, and exceed, their legal obligations.
