We are an independent statutory body established under the Queensland Anti-Discrimination Act 1991. We were formerly the Anti-Discrimination Commission Queensland, and were renamed the Queensland Human Rights Commission on 1 July 2019.
We still handle complaints and training on discrimination, vilification, victimisation and sexual harassment, under Queensland’s Anti-Discrimination Act 1991, as well as complaints under the Human Rights Act 2019.
We support businesses, state and local government, the community sector and people throughout the state.
Our work includes:
- resolving discrimination and human rights complaints;
- delivering training to business, government and the community on discrimination and human rights; and
- promoting public discussion on human rights.
Our head office is in Brisbane. We have regional offices in Cairns, Townsville and Rockhampton.
