Applications for inclusion on the EOWA Employer of Choice for Women List 2010 are now closed.

The 2009 Employer of choice for Women list was released on Wednesday, 18 March. Please visit the media page for more information.

Women-friendly, non-government organisations with Equal Opportunity (EO) programs that recognise and advance their female workforce can brand and position themselves in the marketplace as an 'EOWA Employer of Choice for Women' (EOCFW).

If your organisation's EOWA program has been assessed as either compliant with the Equal Opportunity for Women in the Workplace Act 1999 in the current year, or your organisation has a current waiver from reporting, you can apply for the EOWA Employer of Choice for Women citation by submitting an application by 15 October each year.


Organisations whose achievements have been acknowledged by this award, can use this citation in their recruitment, advertising and other company promotional material.

This prestigious citation provides significant positioning in a competitive marketplace, particularly when a company is seeking to attract the best possible talent.

The 'EOWA Employer of Choice for Women' citation allows organisations to differentiate themselves from their competitors and achieve public acknowledgment of their efforts in the area of equal opportunity for women.

EOWA's workshop, 'Positioning your business for waiving, EOWA Employer of Choice for Women and Business Achievement Awards' is specifically designed to assist you with your 'EOWA Employer of Choice for Women' application. Please click here for workshop details...
