01 — overview
Online microlearning course, built for gyms, studios and fitness teams. Why harassment from members and clients counts — and isn't 'part of the job' — where the legal line sits in a workplace built on bodies, touch cues and tight clothing, the four forms it takes on the floor and in the DMs, how to step in for a workmate mid-session, and the club's positive duty to prevent it, with every reporting door in and outside the club.
Built for: Gyms & Fitness.
02 — who it’s for
- Personal trainers & coaches
- Gym floor & front desk staff
- Group fitness instructors
- Club & studio owners
03 — what’s covered
01
Not part of the job
3 topics- Harassment from members and clients counts — the law doesn't care who pays whom
- Where the line sits in a hands-on industry — spotting, touch cues and 'compliments'
- The line test: running real gym-floor moments through it
02
Reading the gym floor
3 topics- The four forms — spoken, physical, visual and digital
- Nobody aimed it at anyone — hostile environment in a mirrored room
- Walking the club: the floor, the front desk, the DMs
03
Step in, back them up
3 topics- You have more power than you think — interrupting without blowing up a session
- Pick your move — swap clients, call it, check in
- When a workmate tells you — listen, keep the record, don't take over
04
The law's in the club
3 topics- The club has to prevent it — the positive duty covers member behaviour too
- The plan and the protections — policies, membership terms, no victimisation
- Every door in the club and out — the AHRC, the Fair Work Commission, the WHS regulator
04 — how it works
FormatTap-through microlearning — ~1 hr · online. Built for phones, works everywhere. Start on smoko, pause, pick it up on the train.
PracticeScenario cards drop you into real situations along the way — you make the call a worker actually faces, then get the reasoning, straight up.
ChecksQuick knowledge checks in every module. Not exam-style — the course makes sure it sticks before it moves on.
You leave withA certificate of completion from an RTO-crafted course, issued instantly and logged in the Nexa Compliance Hub — with renewal reminders for you or your whole team.
No. This is an awareness course — practical, RTO-authored online training that issues a certificate of completion. It is not a nationally recognised unit of competency.
~1 hr · online. Delivery: online, self-paced. Start, pause, and finish whenever suits.
Yes — that's the core of it. Sexual harassment from members, clients and PT clients is unlawful and is a psychosocial hazard the club must manage. The positive duty means the business has to prevent it, including third-party behaviour, not just staff-on-staff conduct.
Yes. The Sex Discrimination Act and the positive duty apply to every business, from a one-room studio to a 24/7 chain. Size changes the paperwork, not the obligation.
Yes — this course also comes in office and construction editions, same legal backbone, scenarios written for those workplaces.
