Over the last 18 months Renewal SA has been participating in the White Ribbon Australia Workplace accreditation program, which recognises workplaces that are taking active steps to stop violence against women, and grants accreditation as a White Ribbon Workplace.

The program builds on existing gender equality and diversity initiatives, providing the tools to strengthen a culture of respect and gender equality at all levels. The program supports organisations to respond to and prevent violence against women, whether it occurs inside or outside the workplace, through supporting women experiencing violence, supporting all employees to challenge inappropriate behaviour and strengthen gender equality within the broader community.

Following our submission of an application in late 2016, we were recently advised that we have been officially accredited as a White Ribbon Workplace.

Renewal SA is exceptionally pleased to have been accredited and will continue to demonstrate effective leadership, resource allocation, communication, HR policy development and training to create a safe and respectful place of work.

Visit the White Ribbon Australia website to learn more about how we can all work towards an end to violence against women.
