A breach of an Intervention Order should be reported to the police, who have powers to charge the perpetrator with breaching an Order. This is a criminal offence and is a separate proceeding from the application for an Order. Discrimination is treating a person less favourably than others because of a particular attribute they possess or in some cases are assumed to possess. There are laws in Australia prohibiting various forms of discrimination. The Victorian anti-discrimination legislation is the Equal Opportunity Act 1995.
Sexual harassment is also a form of unlawful discrimination.
Sexual harassment is unwelcome, unwanted and unreciprocated behaviour of a sexual nature. This list is by no means exhaustive. If an individual is offended by behaviour occurring in the workplace, that behaviour might be sexual harassment. If the basis of workplace violence is unlawful discrimination, as outlined above, anti discrimination laws apply. Complaints of unlawful discrimination should be made within 12 months of the discrimination occurring.
