In a major step towards improving working conditions in the arts and culture sector, the Australian Government has launched the Creative Workplaces website. A new online hub designed for artist, art workers, and creative organisations with vital workplace information.
The platform offers clear, practical guidance on key issues such as pay, work conditions, work health and safety, and how to address bullying, discrimination, and harassment in creative environments.
Developed under the National Cultural Policy - Revive and delivered through Creative Australia, the initiative responds to long-standing concerns about fairness, safety, and respect in the arts industry. Many in the sector have struggled to access the support and information they need - a gap this new resource aims to close.
