Create Table By Excluding Rows From Another Table

Hi, I have currently two tables, Table1 and Table2.

Table1 is the main data set;
Table2 is derived from Table1 using filters to only include rows where TypeID="Personal"

i.e. Table2 =
FILTER(

'Table1',

'Table1'[TypeID]="Personal"
)

 

I would now like to create a new Table3 where it is also derived from Table1 but excludes rows where 'Table1'[WorkplaceID]='Table2'[WorkplaceID].

 

I have tried using the following formula but it doesn't work:

Table3 =
FILTER(
'Table1',
'Table1'[WorkplaceID]<>'Table2'[WorkplaceID]

 

Problem with the above formula is that I am unable to key in the column 'Table2'[WorkplaceID] into the formula.

 

Table1
