40% of Survey participants working in Aged Care think they are unclear about workplace anti-racism policies and procedures.
The PICAC Alliance is creating a new resource that will provide information and strategies on how to create a cohesive working environment without racism and discrimination. This anonymous survey was sent out nationally to see if there were any aged care workers who had experienced or witnessed racism or discrimination in the workplace, and how their management and co-workers responded to it. The full version of the survey report will be published within the next 12 months. But here is a snapshot for you to check out!
