WORKPLACE CHARTER
Unite the Australian business community to take action, foster gender equality, and contribute to the prevention of sexual harassment and violence against women.
What is the Charter?
It is our responsibility to stand as one and drive genuine behavioural and systematic change. The Workplace Charter connects the Club’s corporate network with opportunities to learn, engage and lead their organisation to become a gender equitable workplace.
An inclusive workplace culture will:
- improve productivity and economic growth
- increase performance
- attract and retain talent
- build organisation reputation.
What does the charter offer?
Charter members get access to:
- staff tickets to the annual Carlton Respects Workplace Seminar
- Carlton Respects AFL and AFLW game-day experiences
- access to speakers for a workplace event
- use of Charter logo.
“All of the content was relevant and thought provoking. A lot to consider on how we can do things better and be part of the solution.”

The facts
Women control or influence over 72 per cent of household spending in Australia.
Companies need to deliberately tackle gender stereotypes in how they advertise and in the products they offer.
Having women in management leads to a 19 per cent higher return on equity.
Smart investors are no longer just looking at financial indicators, they are paying attention to workplace gender equity to predict returns.
Corporate social responsibility (CSR) builds integrity, enhances relationships, increases loyalty and commitment.
CSR is quickly becoming one of the major factors in the consumer decision making process.
