It is your responsibility to ensure you are across any processes and policies that promote OH&S in the workplace and more specifically prevent harm caused by discrimination, harassment or bullying. Professional Behaviour

Our expectation of staff is to at all times display a high level of professional behavior.

All staff should be respectful, tolerant and empathetic of others.

Here at Etihad Stadium we have a wonderfully diverse workforce and we value this diversity. The concept of diversity encompasses acceptance and respect. It means understanding that each individual is unique, and recognising our individual differences.

We do not tolerate unacceptable behaviours and any staff displaying unprofessional behaviours can and will be held accountable for any inappropriate comments, actions or conduct. What We Expect of Our Staff

It is important that if you see something unprofessional that you say something.

We should be aware of our surroundings and monitor and avoid practices, attitudes and traditions which lead to inappropriate and unprofessional behaviours.

If you are on the receiving end of, or witness unprofessional and inappropriate behavior please ensure you report it.

If you don’t say anything you are accepting the behavior and saying it is OK. Unprofessional Behaviours

There are a number of unprofessional and unacceptable behaviours that we touched on in the Online Induction. Here we will go into a little more detail about:

. Bullying . Harassment . Sexual Harassment . Discrimination . Protected Characteristics Bullying

The definition of Bullying is:

A repeated unreasonable behavior directed towards a worker or a group of workers that creates a risk to health and safety. It can be perpetrated by an individual or a group.

Bullying can include verbal abuse, physical violence and / or involve subtle intimidation.

It can also be direct or indirect (e.g. letters, emails, text messages, telephone).

It may not always be what you / they have said but rather how or the way it was said. Words are only 7% of a message. Harassment

Harassment is unwelcome or unsolicited conduct (or potential for) that: . Intimidates . Humiliates . Insults . Offends, or . Scares the person at whom it is directed, regardless of the intent of the offender.

Harassment can also include verbal comments (including voicemail), written (including email and text messages), visual or physical contact, which is unwanted or causes offence to the other person. Sexual Harassment

As mentioned in the Sexual Harassment is unwelcome sexual behavior, which could be expected to make a person feel offended, humiliated, or intimidated. It can be both physical, verbal or written.

Sexual harassment is covered in the workplace when it happens:

. At work . At work-related events . Between people sharing the same workplace . Between colleagues outside of work

Sexual harassment is against the law. Some types of sexual harassment may also be offences under criminal law.

All incidents of sexual harassment – no matter how large or small or who is involved should be reported. Discrimination

Discrimination can either be Direct or Indirect.

Direct discrimination occurs when someone is treated (or proposed to be treated) unfairly and is disadvantaged because of a personal characteristic that is protected under law.

For example: An employee tells jokes which make fun of a person with a protected characteristic.

Indirect discrimination is where a person imposes, or proposes to impose, a requirement, condition or practice that has, or is likely to have, the effect of disadvantaging people with a protected attribute, and that is not reasonable.

For example: A company policy requiring all employees to read and write English fluently when this is not needed for all jobs within the company. Protected Characteristics

We have mentioned protected characteristics a few times now, so what are they?

. Aid of an assistance animal . Sex . Age . Sexuality . Breastfeeding . Status as a parent or carer . Disability, including possible future . Gender identity disability . Spent conviction . Relationship status . Association with a person who has an . Industrial activity attribute listed above . Political conviction . Sexual harassment . Pregnancy, including potential . Vilification because of race, sexuality pregnancy . Gender identity or HIV/AIDS status . Profession, trade, occupation or calling . Victimisation because of making a . Race complaint . Religious conviction The Workplace

With technology these days the workplace extends past the physical office and set times. It now includes any interaction between people who are in a working relationship.

The Workplace can be anywhere, anytime, with anyone related to your work.

It can be staff, contractors, volunteers and customers.

All of the below can be considered to be the Workplace:

. Face to Face . Email . Social Media – this includes your Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter etc if you have other staff linked to these accounts . Phone – texts etc. . Group meetings Where can unprofessional behaviour come from?

Inappropriate and unacceptable behavior can come from anywhere: . You . Your manager . Your co-workers . Your direct reports . Your team leader / area team leader . A contractor . A patron / customer Intent versus Perception

The intent of the individual can be irrelevant based on the perception of the person who has been impacted. If the person did not like the behavior or it made them feel uncomfortable then it will be taken seriously.

You need to think…

Would a reasonable person have anticipated that the behavior would offend, intimidate or humiliate the person? What is not considered bullying, harassment or discrimination?

During our careers we can all receive constructive feedback or counselling on our work performance. We can also receive fair and appropriate supervisory or management instructions delivered in a fair and appropriate manner.

These do not constitute bullying, harassment or discrimination. What is Victimisation?

Victimisation means punishing or threatening to punish someone. It is against the law to punish or threaten to punish someone because they have:

. Asserted their rights under equal opportunity law . Made a complaint . Helped someone else make a complaint . Refused to do something because it would be discrimination, sexual harassment or victimisation How can you recognise if there is a problem?

If you notice any of the below signs in another staff member, this may indicate there is a problem:

. They are withdrawn . They are making a lot more mistakes than they normally would or are having a lot more accidents . They are often turning up to shifts late or are absent a lot . They always appear fatigued or tired . They often appear to be emotional . They lack confidence or self-esteem How to deal with unprofessional behaviour

There are a number of ways people choose to deal with unprofessional behaviours. So what type of bystander are you?

Read the below and reflect on which type of bystander you think you are:

1. Active Approver – you laugh along and encourage the behaviour

2. Silent Approver – you do nothing and just look on

3. Ineffective Disapprover – you know what is occurring is unprofessional and inappropriate but you choose to stay out of it

4. Supportive Disapprover – You see something and you say something. You find help / support and you let the perpetrator know the unprofessional behavior is not acceptable Supportive Disapprovers

We hope you are a Supportive Disapprover and that you would not stand for unprofessional behaviour.

How can you be a supportive disapprover?

• Be clear to other staff that you wont be involved in any unprofessional behaviour • Make sure you don’t participate in any gossiping or encourage the spreading of rumours • If you receive offensive massages or pictures ensure you don’t forward them on • If you see something, say something. Support staff with getting help • And you can always report any unprofessional behaviour to:  Your team leader  Your area team leader  Event Staffing Coordinator or Manager  Catering Operations Assistant, or  The People & Culture (HR) team What should you do if you witness bullying or harassment?

See something, say something

Remember if we ignore it, it wont go away. We should always discourage unprofessional behaviour and offer support where appropriate.

We should support the company culture and Values What should you do if experiencing unprofessional behaviour?

If you feel comfortable to do so, speak to the perpetrator and have a calm and polite conversation with them requesting that they stop the unprofessional behaviour.

Ensure you keep a record of the unprofessional behaviour / incident and your conversation with them if you have had one.

If you don’t feel comfortable speaking to the individual or if you have spoken to them and it hasn’t worked you should speak with your team leader / area team leader, Event Staffing Manager and/or a rep from the People & Culture (HR) team. Your Key MSL Contacts: People & Culture (P&C)
