Treasury released its Family and Domestic Violence policy, endorsed by the Chief People Officer on 17 October 2024, which applies to all staff regardless of gender or employment type. The policy aligns with the Treasury Enterprise Agreement 2024-2027 and relevant legislation, adopting a holistic approach to support employees experiencing family and domestic violence. It provides guidance on accessing internal and external supports, with employees directed to contact the Performance and Wellbeing Team for advice. The policy defines family and domestic violence according to the Fair Work Act 2009 as violent, threatening or abusive behaviour by close relatives, household members, or intimate partners intended to coerce, control or cause harm. Emergency contacts are listed for Treasury offices in Canberra, Melbourne, Sydney and Perth. The document serves as a guide for managers and colleagues supporting affected employees.
