Indigenous Engagement

Our group of companies has a long history of working collaboratively with local Indigenous people, organisations, and communities in locations across Australia.

Our Indigenous Engagement and Development framework comprises five key elements, these include:

• LEADERSHIP - Leading a genuine commitment to the long-term enhancement of prospects for Indigenous people

• CULTURAL AWARENESS - Establishing a work environment that is welcoming, respectful and understanding of indigenous people and culture

• ECONOMIC EMPOWERMENT - Working with Indigenous businesses to develop capability and enhance economic prospects of Indigenous owned businesses

• EMPLOYMENT, TRAINING & SKILLS DEVELOPMENT - Assisting Indigenous people in developing “work readiness” skills. Providing on-the-job training for semi-skilled labour and providing individuals with the opportunity to undertake formal training and/or apprenticeships

• COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT - Building positive and meaningful relationships with Indigenous communities

Our commitment to Indigenous Engagement and Development has been recognised by industry. Our company has received the following awards:

• NAB Schools First Award for WA in conjunction with Clontarf Aboriginal College (2011)
• CCF WA Indigenous Trainer of the Year award (2010)
