To address this the University has developed equity policies and procedures. These include a range of other mechanisms under the laws outlined above through which complaints or concerns can be addressed. Information about your university equity and grievance procedures should be available on their website. The Queensland Anti-discrimination Act 1991 and the Federal Sex Discrimination Act 1984 prohibits sexual harassment in all circumstances. Sexual harassment is any form of unwelcome behaviour that could be considered offensive, humiliating or intimidating.
Sexual harassment has nothing to do with mutual attraction or friendship.
Sexual interaction such as flirtation and attraction is not sexual harassment when it is invited, mutual, consensual or reciprocated. Sexual harassment can take various forms and be obvious or indirect, physical or verbal. It includes behaviour that creates a sexually hostile or intimidating environment. If you believe you have been sexually harassed you have the right to lodge a complaint. Griffith University has internal procedures and mechanisms for seeking to remedy the situation.
