Gender equity

At UOW, we are committed to providing a diverse and inclusive workplace and are proud of our culture that provides equal opportunity regardless of gender. We have adopted policies that support gender equity and have developed workplace flexibility arrangements that support all genders and promote a healthy work-life balance. We are also committed to removing barriers to the selection, advancement, and opportunities for people of all genders in the workplace and have solid training packages in place.

We are committed to pay scale equity and the measurement and elimination of gender pay gaps. UOW regularly measures and tracks pay scale gender equity and conducts extensive gender pay gap analysis by level, faculty, division, and school. Findings and recommendations are reported to the People & Culture Committee and University Council.

UOW has a firm commitment to addressing equal pay (like-for-like gaps) and eliminating the gender pay gap (overall, organisation-wide pay gap) at our University. We have also affirmed our commitment to zero tolerance of gender-based harassment and discrimination, sexual harassment, and bullying by ensuring that UOW’s Senior Executive have received training in sexual assault and sexual harassment in the workplace.
