Holstep Health is proud to have submitted our first Gender Equality Report to the Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) in July 2025. This marks an important milestone for our new organisation as we work towards building a workplace that is inclusive, equitable, and supportive for all.
What the report covers
The report outlines the progress we’ve made and the commitments we’ve set across several key areas:
- Policies and strategies that support gender equality, diversity, and inclusion
- Flexible working arrangements available across roles, helping balance life and work
- Paid parental leave for all parents, recognising the important role of every caregiver
- Support for carers including additional leave options and keep-in-touch programs
- Prevention and response to harassment and discrimination ensuring safety and respect for all staff
- Support for staff experiencing family or domestic violence including paid leave, EAP support, and workplace safety planning.
Looking ahead
This is just the beginning. The insights from our first report will help guide the ongoing implementation of the Holstep Health Gender Equality Strategy, and we are committed to sharing our progress with staff, partners, and our community.
