Shownotes

The Workplace Gender Equality Agency's (WGEA) new gender goal-setting requirements are now in full effect. Is your business on track to satisfy the new requirements?

In this episode of ER/IR Unpacked, we strip away the compliance jargon to tackle the strategic reality of gender reporting and target setting in the workplace. Plus, AHRI's HR Standards and Capability Development Manager, Amal Cimino CPHR, offers a quick update on upcoming ER/IR changes on the horizon.

In our deep dive section, we explore the powerful business case for gender equality with Dr Samone McCurdy, Executive Manager, Insights and Capability at WGEA. We dive into the latest legislative reforms, discuss the new 'menu' of targets for large employers, the importance of board-level transparency and explore how HR can use this data to influence strategy with the C-suite.

Plus, we answer HR's burning listener questions – from the consequences of missing a target to managing baselines during a major company restructure.
