How Do I Submit an Employment Law Claim for Workplace Sexual Harassment?
To file a workplace sexual harassment claim, follow these steps:
- Document the Incident(s) – Keep a detailed record of the harassment, including dates, times, locations, and any witnesses. Save emails, messages, or any evidence related to the harassment.
- Report to Your Employer – Follow your workplace’s complaint procedures by reporting the incident to HR, a manager, or a designated complaints officer. Employers are legally required to address workplace harassment.
- Lodge a Formal Complaint – If your employer does not take appropriate action, you can file a complaint with relevant authorities such as:
- The Fair Work Commission (Australia)
- The Australian Human Rights Commission
- A state or territory anti-discrimination body
- Seek Legal Advice – Consulting an employment lawyer can help you understand your rights, gather necessary evidence, and determine your claim’s best course of action.
- Pursue Mediation or Legal Action – Many cases are resolved through mediation or settlements. You can escalate the claim to a tribunal or court for further legal proceedings if necessary.

How Long After a Workplace Sexual Harassment Incident Can I Make a Claim?
The time limit to file a workplace sexual harassment claim depends on the legal body handling your case. For the Fair Work Commission, the complaint must be lodged within 21 days of the last incident of harassment. The Australian Human Rights Commission (AHRC) requires claims to be made within 24 months of the incident, though earlier claims are encouraged.
Other state and territory anti-discrimination bodies’ deadlines vary by jurisdiction, typically ranging from 6 to 12 months after the incident. Since timeframes depend on your specific case, it is crucial to consult an employment lawyer as soon as possible. Call us at 1800 773 880 for assistance.
