How to disclose or report

If you've witnessed or experienced unacceptable or concerning behaviour, we're here to help. Our staff will listen, talk you through options and offer support.

If you've experienced discrimination, violence or threats (such as sexual assault, sexual harassment, racism, and family violence) we can support you to take action. 

Disclosing means telling someone. Reporting means telling someone, but with the expectation that they will do something about it. Whether you disclose or report is entirely up to you.

Disclose or report an incident

Tell Equity and Inclusion
You can phone or email our Equity and Inclusion team to make a safe disclosure and get help with advice, support, intervention and risk management.
Make a formal report
Complete and submit our online form to formally report any form of discrimination, violence or threats to personal safety.

What happens after you report

After you report an incident, our Equity and Inclusion team will get in touch to discuss the next steps. You don't have to take action yourself and we'll always respect your choices in handling the situation.

We'll work on your behalf to prevent further concerning behaviour. If there's a risk to the community, we might need to use the information you provide to keep everyone safe. We'll always keep you informed about how we use your information.

Need support?

If you'd like to talk to someone about your experiences, you can get support at Federation or through external services.
