The Hub’ provides leading research, training, events and discussion on all things related to Indigenous employment. Some of the projects we are currently working on are listed below.
The Indigenous People and Work Research and Practice Hub is creating impact regarding the employment status of Indigenous people through two key stakeholder groups:
- Indigenous people, and the employment community (broadly defined as employment, workplace relations, human resources and diversity practitioners and academics and lawyers and students of all of the former); and
- Indigenous employment practitioners.
We are currently involved in the following projects:
- The Gari Yala research project conducted in partnership with Diversity Council Australia. The research takes place every three years and:
- is the first Australia-wide survey to understand Indigenous people's experiences at work;
- provides the ability to understand the workplace from an Indigenous perspective and mobs’ interpretation of attitudes towards them and support available; and
- provides a baseline of Indigenous experiences for future research. - A survey of workplace experiences of Indigenous LGBTI people in conjunction with Pride in Diversity.
- The establishment of a pay equity measurement that assesses disparity on the basis of people’s Indigenous status, their ethnicity and disability. This project is being undertaken in conjunction with the Univeristy of Sydney and other relevant industry stakeholders.
We also have client-based work and are working internationally (with ‘Diversity in Organisations, Nations and Communities’).
