Overview

The Operating with Respect course provides participants with practical strategies and skills to respond appropriately to unacceptable behaviour. 

 

The Operating with Respect course was developed in response to the release of the RACS Action Plan on Discrimination, Bullying and Sexual Harassment in the Practice of Surgery. It is designed to deliver advanced training in recognising, managing and preventing discrimination, bullying and sexual harassment, to help all surgeons create a safe, respectful workplace culture that positively impacts Trainee learning and ultimately improves surgical care. 

 It provides participants with practical strategies and skills to respond appropriately to unacceptable behaviour and promotes reflection and self-awareness, challenges common biases, assumptions and erroneous views and is delivered by skilled faculty. While compulsory for Surgical Supervisors and Committee members, the course is open to all Fellows.
