Our peoples’ unique backgrounds, experiences and abilities are at the heart of our vibrant workforce. We come together to create workplaces that reflect the diverse communities we serve, where everyone feels empowered and valued.
Building diverse teams means creating inclusive environments for our colleagues. We celebrate our individuality, we appreciate everyone’s contribution and we respect and support each other. As a team, we work together to create a culture of caring and collaboration. Because at Compass, everyone is together – and as a community we succeed.
First Nations Peoples
Compass Group recognises the importance of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people as the traditional owners of the land where we live and work.
As leaders, with operations in every state and territory, Compass Group has a responsibility and an important role to play in reconciliation and closing the considerable gap between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and other Australians. Through strengthening our relationships with communities and a deepening respect for our First Nations Peoples’ rich history, cultures and achievements we are able to promote sustainable opportunities within our sphere of influence and to be a positive driver for long term social change.
Disability
With 1 in 5 Australians living with disability, we are committed to continue to remove unintended barriers throughout the employment cycle and to develop a dynamic and diverse workforce reflective of the communities that we serve. Specifically, we are focusing on: employment, training and career development and through our in house Disability Confidence Training program our leaders empower our workforce to be disability-confident and build an accessible, equitable, inclusive and safe workplace for people with disability.
Gender Equity
Compass Group Australia is committed to achieving fixed and variable pay equity, offering improved workplace flexibility and developing a talent pipeline of women into senior management roles.
Pride
Compass Group Australia is committed to ensuring all employees are able to bring their whole selves to work, to feel safe and feel supported as we continue to develop a dynamic and diverse workforce reflective of the communities that we serve.
Veterans
Compass Group Australia is committed to supporting current and former Australian Defence Force (ADF) personnel and their families with opportunities for ongoing and meaningful civilian employment.
Compass Group Australia recognises that Veterans and current ADF personnel have lived a life of service, structure and purpose in often unusual and/or dangerous environments. We understand that the skills and experience gained in service may not always easily transition across to civilian life and we are dedicated to providing our Veterans and those transitioning from Defence, extra support into new career pathways within our business. To do this, we provide a structured support and mentoring program as well as key training for our leaders and managers.
