Why we’re doing this.​

Outside of the community sector, most businesses have low awareness of the potential impact their operations and activities can have on children and there are no consistent national standards to guide them.

Too few businesses consider their vulnerabilities to perpetrator exploitation. With the e-Safety Commission estimating that 2% of employees use company supplied assets to facilitate exploitation, these vulnerabilities may even exist within their own workforce.

It's time for collective action.​

On Us is bringing Australian businesses together to co-design and drive action on this issue. This cross-sector initiative seeks to strengthen the capability and commitment of Australian businesses to safeguarding policies and practices, providing assurance for your business and your customers.

acknowledgement of country and abuse victims
The On Us: Australian Business Coalition for Safeguarding Children acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the land and waters across Australia in which we share. We honour and pay our respects to Elders past and present and acknowledge the many thousands of years in which First Nations’ peoples have raised their children to be safe and strong. We also acknowledge the spirit and courage of victims and survivors of childhood abuse, exploitation and violence. Their efforts over many years have inspired our commitment to make changes at every level to better protect the children of today.
