90% of business leaders recognize the severity of sexual harassment in the workplace, and more than four million people have experienced it in the past five years, with higher incidents in male-dominated sectors such as construction, retail, and mining. In response, Our Watch launched the Lead the Change campaign to support bosses in meeting new regulations requiring businesses to actively work towards eliminating sexual harassment in the workplace. The campaign emphasizes the importance of fostering a culture of respect and equality to prevent harassment, as well as the benefits of a more gender-equal workplace, including fewer sexual harassment reports.
