Equal Opportunity Guidelines for Advertisers in New South Wales and Victoria

Federal and State anti-discrimination laws make it unlawful to publish or display an advertisement that indicates, or could reasonably be understood to indicate, an intention to discriminate. It is your responsibility as the employer or recruiter to ensure that your advertisement complies with all relevant employment and anti-discrimination laws applicable in the state in which you conduct business.

These guidelines are intended to assist you in writing the advertisement but they are not intended to be nor should they be relied on as a substitute for legal or other professional advice.

What is discrimination?

The relevant laws prohibit both direct and indirect discrimination. Direct discrimination occurs when a person with a certain attribute is treated less favourably than a person who does not have that attribute in the same or similar circumstances. Indirect discrimination concerns a requirement which appears neutral but is unreasonable and a significant proportion of people with a particular attribute are unable to meet that requirement.

Discrimination is prohibited in employment:
Anti-discrimination laws apply to all employers in Australia, and to all recruitment processes undertaken in Australia by an Australian or an overseas company.

Discrimination is prohibited on the ground of a range of attributes:
It is illegal to discriminate against, or in favour of, the following attributes in employment advertising: age, breastfeeding, disability, transgender status, industrial activity, marital status, family responsibilities, physical features, political belief or activity, pregnancy, race, religious belief or activity, sex, sexual orientation and personal association with person with attributes identified.

Writing the Advertisement:

The following terms are prohibited from advertisements:

·         'Single applicants only'

·         'Married man required'

·         'Unmarried mother'

·         De facto, 'couples only'

·         'No gays'

·         'No queers'

·         'Straights only'

·         'No aborigines'

·         'Australian only'

·         The use of: 'He, she, male female, girl, boy, woman, man', etc

·         'No children'

An advertisement cannot ask for 'Australian Citizenship'. It can, however, ask for an 'authority to work in Australia'.

Opt for gender neutral terms, such as 'Foreperson' instead of 'Foreman' and 'Flight Attendant' instead of 'Air Hostess'.

Suggested gender neutral wording:

Inappropriate/Prohibited:	Recommended:
Girl Friday	Personal Office Assistant/Office Assistant
Head Master	Principal
Cleaning Lady	Cleaner
Barmaid	Bar Attendant
Workman	Worker/Employee
Foreman	Supervisor
Saleswoman	Salesperson
She/he	Applicant
Male	Person
Girl	Person
Woman	They
Waiter	Waiter (acceptable if M/F after title)
Policeman	Police worker

Age cannot be specified in employment advertising. The use of 'Mature', 'senior' and 'junior' are examples of indirect discrimination. Terms such as 'Senior' or 'Junior' should only be used for genuinely established job titles that indicate a particular professional level grading, for example 'Senior Lecturer'.

Inappropriate	Recommended
Mature	Possessing initiative/responsible/capable
Years of experience	Successful track record/proven experience
Senior programmer	Principal programmer
Office junior	Office assistant
