Employers have a responsibility to address and manage poor conduct and behaviour which may expose other workers to work health and safety risks in the workplace. Implementation of effective disciplinary processes are vital in curbing such risks that may lead to a poor workplace culture, which may in turn create psychosocial hazards.

The Australian Government has approved a national Work Health and Safety (Sexual and Gender-based Harassment) Code of Practice 2025 which has been implemented in conjunction with the Work Health and Safety (Managing Psychosocial Hazards at Work) Code of Practice 2024.
