Building on findings from the first national study of migrant and refugee women in Australia, this book critiques the limitations of current models for measuring and responding to workplace sexual harassment. Challenging the separation of harassment, racial discrimination and exploitation into isolated categories, the authors present a framework that reflects the interconnected realities of abuse faced by migrant women. The book demonstrates that building a safer framework from this understanding will improve workplace safety for all women.Honouring the courage of women who take the risk of reporting abusive conditions, the book exposes how silence around formal complaints perpetuates harm and deters disclosure. The authors advocate for a more integrated approach that prioritises what matters: safety and accountability.
