Ambulance Victoria should:
a) work in partnership with an external training provider with expertise in leading practice approaches to workplace equality and leadership development, to re-develop and deliver live (in-person or virtually) and as part of induction and otherwise annually:
(i) a workplace equality training program for all employees and first responders
(ii) an advanced, tailored training program for leaders and managers that reinforces their key responsibilities under the Equal Opportunity Act 2010 (Vic) and builds core workplace equality competencies, including managing challenging conversations and addressing conflict, engaging the workforce in safe discussions about workplace equality, monitoring and mitigating risks of unlawful and harmful workplace conduct, taking a victim-centric and trauma-informed approach to reports and complaints of unlawful and harmful workplace conduct, which includes understanding intersectionality and the particular needs of different staff cohorts, and anticipating and addressing backlash.
(iii) also develop practical tools and resources to support the workforce and leaders and managers to apply key learnings from these programs
(iv) ensure its systems allow training completion rates to be adequately monitored and reported on.
The training should be rolled out sequentially, with the advanced management training program delivered by December 2022, followed by universal workplace equality training for all employees and first responders to be delivered by July 2023.
