Social
We consider the 'Social' aspect of ESG to encompass everything related to people.
That's from ensuring everyone goes Home Without Harm, to making a positive and meaningful impact on the well-being and prosperity of our employees, stakeholders, and the communities we engage with. This focus aligns seamlessly with our purpose of 'Providing a Better Life'.
Our commitment begins with our rigorous safety management system and extends to maximising local employment and supply opportunities, as well as delivering needs-based community support and uplift initiatives through our projects.
Last financial year, we invested over $44 million in our social procurement program, collaborating with social enterprises and establishing long-term partnerships with First Nations businesses across our operating regions.
Our social initiatives are as diverse as our business, tailored to meet the unique needs and circumstances of the communities we serve, as illustrated by the case studies below.
