Workplace Sexual Harassment, Bullying and Psychosocial Hazard Complaint
Complaints, reports and case records about sexual harassment, sex-based harassment, workplace bullying and psychosocial hazards that name the people involved: complainant and respondent details, incident date, location and alleged conduct, interim measures, investigation and outcome. Anchored on the Sex Discrimination Act 1984 (Cth) s 47C positive duty, the Work Health and Safety Regulation 2011 (Qld) psychosocial risk provisions (Part 3.2 Division 11) and the Managing the risk of psychosocial hazards at work Code of Practice 2022 (Qld). Overlaps global-top500-064-employee-grievance-reports and global-top500-079-workplace-investigation-files (generic phrase classifiers); this one requires populated party and incident fields.

- Medium: the primary phrases are the statutory and Code of Practice terms, but they saturate policies, training and AHRC/WorkSafe guidance, so enforce tiers need populated complainant/respondent or incident fields, and 85 needs parties, incident particulars and a process field together. Complaint and case numbers are organisation-defined and are not shape-checked. Aggregate psychosocial risk registers (hazard, likelihood, controls) stay at 65 by design. 85/75 are heuristic evidence tiers, not measured accuracy; test values are synthetic complaint records.

Known false positives
- Sexual harassment, bullying and psychosocial policies, the Code of Practice, AHRC positive-duty guidance and WorkSafe material. Mitigation: Enforce tiers need a populated party or incident field; a guidance exclusion suppresses text naming this code, policy/procedure scope statements, fact sheets, FAQs and positive duty guidelines.
- Training scenarios and case studies with fictional parties. Mitigation: Case study, hypothetical and training module wording is excluded, as is the shared template-exclusion dictionary.
- Psychosocial risk registers and hazard assessments that are aggregate (hazard, likelihood, controls). Mitigation: No party or incident field, so these stay at 65. A register row that names an affected worker reaches 75, which is intended.
- Published tribunal and court decisions about harassment. Mitigation: Decisions carrying a CATCHWORDS header are excluded; decision extracts without it can reach 75.
