AWEI and Ongoing Data Analysis
The AWEI Employee Survey, which accompanies the Australian Workplace Equality Index every year, is Australia’s richest source of annual and local data that focuses on both; LGBTQ inclusion initiatives and the impact of these initiatives on employees, regardless of how they identify. Participation in this optional employee survey has increased every year since it’s initial release.
To utilise this data, Pride in Diversity annually publishes a series of data materials, videos and blogs under the heading of AWEI PRACTICE POINTS.
You can view historical Practice Points here on this page or sign up to the Practice Points mailing list to ensure that you receive any data as it is released, direct to your email.

In this first edition of Practice Points 2020, we look at some of the initial findings in regard to the lived experience of employees of diverse sexuality.
The data includes surprising findings on being out at work, engagement, mental health & well-being data and the latest survey data on bullying & harassment. |

This second edition of AWEI 2020 Practice Points focuses on aspects of the survey that shed light on the inclusion of employees with a diverse gender and/or trans experience.
Part 1 will look at general views and perceptions of all respondents in areas that are important or impact inclusion felt by trans and gender diverse employees; Part 2 will focus on the lived experience of trans & gender diverse respondents and the impact of these initiatives on their wellbeing at work. |

Are our Leaders Our Most Active Allies: Being an Active Ally in the Workplace |
In the third edition of AWEI 2020 Practice Points, we discuss the importance of active allies as they have made a visibly positive difference to the sense of LGBTQ inclusion in the workplace. We also note why they differ from those who are passive allies.
The data also shows trends suggesting that the higher we move up traditional organisational hierarchies, the higher the likelihood of someone being an active ally. Likewise, this visibility decreases as we move down the same reporting lines. |
2019 Practice Points
4 October 2019 | CALD Employees | One of our strategic initiatives is to take a deep look at intersectionality in the workplace, for the purpose of understanding the unique experiences and challenges faced by LGBTIQ people who come from a culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) background. |
25 September | LGBTIQ+ Women | In this edition of AWEI Practice Points, we aim to understand the dual challenges for LGBTIQ+ women; of being both a woman in the workplace and of diverse sexuality, gender, or intersex variation. We investigate the data from Where are all the women? and compare findings from the 2019 AWEI Survey to determine any shifts or additional insights. |
12 September | Allies in the Workplace | In this edition of AWEI Practice Points, we focus on allies in the workplace; how they identify as an ally, how active they are as an ally, and reasons why they may not identify as an ally. We also look at the difference allies make to LGBTIQ employees and their overall sense of inclusion. |
28 August | Being Out & Open: Engagement Data | In this edition of AWEI Practice Points, we look at the changing numbers of those who are out in the workplace. We also note why our focus on these numbers should be different for Trans & Gender Diverse People and how being out in the workplace impacts engagement data. |
