Increasing indigenous employment through our programs

Our membership of Supply Nation provides opportunities for more of our staff to be involved in initiatives designed to promote greater inclusion of indigenous people. We recognise the value of a diverse supply chain to drive innovation and flexibility within our organisation, and we also believe that by ensuring that our procurement decisions include indigenous businesses, that we can contribute to greater economic empowerment of First Australians and contribute to “closing the gap”.
