What is discrimination and harassment?


Discrimination means making choices about how we treat other people. Those choices can be made using real and relevant information, or they can be based on prejudice, stereotypes and bias.

Some discrimination is unlawful (for example, sexual harassment and racial discrimination) and some is not (for example, a coach who shows favouritism towards their own child over other players).

All discrimination is undesirable if it leads to unfair treatment of players, members or other participants in recreation and sport.
