17C Failure to comply with gender equality targets

For the purposes of section 19D, a designated relevant employer is taken to fail to comply with this Act if, at the end of a target cycle for the employer, the employer has not, without reasonable excuse, in respect of each gender equality target selected by the employer for the target cycle, either:

(a)

met the target; or

(b)

demonstrated improvement against the target in the public report for the final year of the target cycle, as compared to the baseline report for the target cycle.

Note:

If the employer does not have a reasonable excuse for the failure, the Agency may name the employer in a report given to the Minister or by electronic or other means: see section 19D.
