370 Degrees Group Ltd Exemption Application – Nov 2011
About the exemption application
This page concerns an exemption application to enable the Applicant to advertise for female applicants for Information Technology Traineeships and Cadetships to encourage female participation in the IT sector.
The Commission made submissions about the application of special measures (section 12) and said that if VCAT was satisfied that the proposed conduct constitutes a special measure under section 12, then it was not necessary for the Applicant to apply for an exemption. The Tribunal found that the conduct was not a special measure and granted an exemption to enable the Applicant to specifically target female applicants in advertising for IT Traineeships and Cadetships.
