National survey of LGBTQ+ employees

The University of Tasmania are seeking your participation in a national survey of LGBT+ employees in religiously affiliated organisations such as schools, social welfare providers and health providers. This is part of a national research project aimed at identifying strategies to manage tensions between religious freedom and LGBTQ+ rights in the workplace in Australia (please see addendum or website for further information on the overall project).

The research team is reaching out to as many workers as possible, thereby making the outcomes robust and comprehensive, and providing a broad overview of the range of experiences and attitudes.
