Rely Partners with Intersection to Make Workplace Safety & Integrity BAU

Rely, a leading workplace case management platform, is proud to announce its partnership with Intersection, Australia’s leading consultancy with expertise in transforming organisational culture to ensure safety and respect in the workplace. Against a backdrop of new legal obligations and societal change, this collaboration equips Australian workplaces with easy access to innovative tools and trauma-informed support. Together, we’re empowering organisations to foster environments where employees feel safe, respected, and included, where compliance with legal obligations is a minimum standard, and where the road to achieving best practice in safety and respect is clear.

Rely: Building Listening Workplaces

Rely works with organisations like Woolworths, Barwon Health, and the WA Institute of Sport, delivering innovative software that makes it easier for leaders to manage workplace issues and ensure compliance with legislation. With a focus on data-driven insights and guidance, Rely helps leaders identify risks early, address issues effectively, and prevent future incidents.

“When it came to empowering workplaces to seamlessly integrate the principles of Respect@Work into their everyday operations, partnering with Intersection was the obvious choice. With just a few clicks, leaders can now adopt a human-centred platform to help prevent, detect, and address sexual harassment and inappropriate behaviour received directly or via the Your Call whistleblowing service. Additionally, for large-scale culture reviews, framework audits, and training initiatives, Rely’s partnership with Intersection empowers organisations to access Australia’s foremost experts in gender equality and cultural transformation.” Nathan Luker, Rely

Intersection: Leading Change in Integrity and Inclusion

Intersection is a boutique consulting firm that focuses on supporting Boards, leaders and organisations to foster safe, respectful and inclusive workplace cultures. 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 developed the prevention framework which underpins the seven positive duty standards that all employers must comply with.

“Fostering a safe reporting culture is a key component of any organisation’s response to preventing and responding to inappropriate workplace behaviours. Rely’s industry-leading platform combines trauma-informed service with cutting-edge technology, delivering safe, respectful experiences while offering comprehensive features for case management. Their approach supports both individuals speaking up and organisations in their response, ensuring every voice is heard, respected, and protected. By partnering with Rely we’ve been able to help organisations further cultivate a culture of trust and accountability. This makes Rely our clear choice for managing sensitive issues like sexual harassment, inappropriate behaviour, and whistleblowing.” Natasha de Silva, Intersection

This partnership makes it easier for organisations to:

• Deploy a compliant, trauma-informed platform: Pre-configured by experts, Rely’s platform allows for real-time reporting and incident management, ensuring quick responses to workplace concerns.

• Enable confidential and anonymous reporting: Employees have access to secure, anonymous channels to report issues like harassment and discrimination.

• Follow best-practice processes: Organisations can reduce risks by using standardised workflows and procedures for consistent logging, effective action.
