You can make a complaint to the Australian Human Rights Commission if you have experienced discrimination, harassment and bullying based on your age (young or old), disability, race, sex, gender identity, intersex status, sexual orientation, sexual preference.

You can also make a complaint to the Commission if you have experienced discrimination, harassment and bullying while in employment only based on your criminal record, trade union activity, political opinion, religion or social origin (in employment only).
