A common theme across BETA’s advice and research projects this year has been to change the world to suit people, rather than expect people to change to suit the world.
We are pleased to share with you our highlights from 2024.

Many victim-survivors of family and domestic violence (FDV) have experienced, or believe they would experience, stigma and discrimination in the workplace.
BETA, in partnership with the Department of Employment and Workplace Relations, conducted research to understand the impact of the new entitlement for 10 days of paid family and domestic violence (FDV) leave.
We interviewed both FDV victim-survivors and employers, and surveyed 594 FDV victim-survivors, 1,437 employers and 3,008 other Australian workers.
As part of the Phase 3: Asbestos National Strategic Plan 2024-2030 (ANSP), the Asbestos and Silica Safety and Eradication Agency (ASSEA) aims to encourage the safe removal of asbestos from Australian residences.
BETA is seeking expressions of interest for 3 new members of our Academic Advisory Panel (AAP) to start in February 2025.
If you're running randomised trials, the linear probability model is your friend! At BETA, we use the linear probability model with robust standard errors as our primary estimator. Find out how the linear probability model could be easier to interpret, easier to run, easier to explain and more accurate than logistic regression.
