About Us

franca-sala-tenna

At EEO Specialists we believe that most people don’t mean to offend, but they sometimes do because they don’t realise that what they just said or did was inappropriate. We want to minimise the impact of workplace problems by showing employees what to think about before they tell the funny but sexually inappropriate joke or before they play a trick on someone as “a joke”. We enable people to think about their behaviours, not from their own perspective but from everyone else’s perspective. We like to do this by customising the workshops to your organisation, creating scenarios of things that ‘could happen’ at your workplace so people go away feeling like the information made sense to them.

Ex-Sephora Employee Creates Website Highlighting Bullying Allegations at Company An ex-Sephora employee has levelled bullying allegations against the beauty giant, after publishing detailed reports on incidents at its prominent Highpoint store in Melbourne. The allegations were published to the website ‘Working at Sephora’ by former sales consultant ‘Liam’ and his partner ‘Jack’, who used pseudonyms to retain anonymity. The allegations included breaches of privacy and mishandling of staff conflicts at the Melbourne store. Documents showed that Liam complained about being openly criticised by one of the store’s managers. In response to Liam’s complaint, Highpoint’s management asked Liam to change to a different store to avoid conflict. However, despite taking the incident to Sephora’s HR, the matter didn’t resolve.
