processes are used to substantiate a complaint with evidence or to formally bring together the personnel
involved in an attempt to achieve an agreement.

2. When a complaint is made against a high official, a formal procedure can assist guarantee that the
persons concerned are not harmed.
Purpose
- Informal complaint processes are designed to solve problems quickly rather than investigate and verify
accusations. They're looking for consensus and a shared understanding of how to avoid difficulties in the future.
There are two instances in which an informal complaint is appropriate: when the charges are less serious; and
when the problem is caused by a misunderstanding due to miscommunication.
there are options for dealing with it.
For the employee who has a complaint,

Before taking direct action, seek counsel from a supervisor, HR representative, or union representative, as well
as an equal opportunity contact person.
Requesting that the problem be addressed by the employer.
Briefly outline the process you would follow to report an incident of racism in the
2.
workplace.

physical aggression, and humiliating conduct are all examples of racism. For such conduct, a formal written
complaint must be filed, with the procedure detailed as follows:
• Interview the complainant and keep a record of the claims.
• Inform the individual who has been accused of wrongdoing of the information and request a response.
• If the facts are in doubt, obtain further information, including testimony from any witnesses.
• Check to see if the complaint is legitimate.
• Report the racist event to your manager or a higher-ranking official in writing.
• Report on the method, the evidence, and the conclusion, and make a recommendation.

3.
or criminal breaches of each of the 5 acts:
The following are two instances of minor or criminal violations of the act:
1. An employer refuses to allow a person to participate in a training course because he believes a younger person
can learn and perform better than the person because he believes the person is too old.
2. An employer refuses to provide a worker with the necessary perks and resources to complete his job because he
believes the individual is too young to do his tasks effectively.
Disability Discrimination Act (DDA)
To eradicate, as far as possible, discrimination against people with disabilities in the following areas:
• Work, housing, education, access to facilities, clubs, and sports are all important factors.
• Goods, facilities, services, and land are all provided.
• current legislation
the execution of Commonwealth statutes and programmes
• 1 To ensure that persons with disabilities have the same rights to equality before the law as the rest of the
community, as far as is practicable; and
• 2 To promote community recognition and acceptance of the principle that persons with disabilities have
the same fundamental rights as the rest of the community.
The following are two instances of minor or criminal violations of the act:
1. An employee with a mobility limitation is not permitted to park near the workplace.
2. Refusing to provide facilities for handicapped employees, such as a wheelchair ramp, or reassigning disabled
employees to a new job that is incompatible with their impairment.
You cannot be discriminated against because of your race, according to the law.
In legal terms, race might refer to your skin colour or nationality (including your citizenship). It might also refer to
your ethnic or national roots, which may or may not coincide with your present nationality. For example, you may
be of Chinese descent but have a British passport and reside in the United Kingdom.
Race encompasses ethnic and racial groupings as well. This refers to a group of people who are all protected
because of their ethnicity or race.
• Someone believes you're the polar opposite (this is known as discrimination by perception)
• You are linked to someone of a specific sex (this is known as discrimination by association)
What can happen if a business has been found to have been discriminating against
4.
people of an older age or with a disability within their recruitment process?
Applicants who were subjected to discrimination throughout the recruiting process would undoubtedly suffer emotional,
mental, and bodily consequences. It will just cause them to lose confidence in their ability to apply for their next job because
all of the discriminations have already been imprinted on their thoughts and have impacted their self-esteem.
A person can file a complaint with the Anti-Discrimination Board if a company is determined to be discriminating against
persons of a certain age or with a handicap during the recruiting process. The Australian Human Rights and Equal
Opportunity Commission is in charge of providing information to guarantee that workplaces are free of harassment and
discrimination. A person can file a complaint with the Anti-Discrimination Board if they believe they have been
discriminated against.
The complaint should be made in writing and contain details such as what occurred, when and where it occurred,
who was involved, and the names of anybody else who may comment on the matter. If the allegation is judged to
be valid, the company might face significant penalties.
