ACU’s Equal Opportunity Policy supports the principles of equity in employment and education for its staff and students.
The University will endeavour to:
- Ensure that employment practices are fair, equitable and merit based
- Promote an environment that is free from unlawful discrimination and harassment
- Address the effects of disadvantage and discrimination experienced by diverse groups in the community
We can all contribute by making a personal commitment to respect others and not cause them distress, discomfort and/ or disadvantage, and:
- Acknowledge that others have different, but equally significant, cultural and social backgrounds, beliefs, opinions and levels of tolerance
- Be mindful of verbal and non-verbal cues indicating offence or embarrassment, and cease behaviour that may cause distress or discomfort to others
- Value the positive contribution that diversity makes to the University and Australian society
- Increase your awareness and understanding by participating in Equity and Diversity events and programs
