Resilient communities

We’re empowering health, wellbeing and inclusion to help our people, customers and communities thrive

Using our power to empower others

Our priority is supporting the health and wellbeing of our people and the communities we serve. We’re also focused on being a workplace that welcomes, respects and represents diverse people and views, so that everyone has equal opportunity to grow.

We are aiming to achieve top quartile employee engagement by 2030 and cultivate an inclusive culture that embraces diversity.

  • Supporting staff health with our YOUnique program
  • Equipping leaders with inclusive leadership development training
  • Creating employment and procurement opportunities for Aboriginal Islander people
  • Creating pathways for future female leaders in STEM.

Supporting targets

  • Maintain an illness and injury rate of less than 5 by 2035
  • 90% employee participation in YOUnique training session by 2025, 97.5% participation by 2027
  • Achieve and maintain a Community Reputation Score rated strong by 2035.

Unique programs support unique people

Our YOUnique program supports our people with mentoring, self development, health programs, and retirement preparation.

2024 marked the fourth anniversary of the YOUnique program which provides team members with access to:

  • Health and wellbeing programs
  • Mentoring and self-development programs
  • Tools to support their whole employment life cycle, including onboarding, employment term and exiting/retirement.

Supporting the needs of our communities

We also invest in the needs of our communities, beyond providing them access to electricity.  We do this through our Employee Volunteering, Workplace Giving and Community Grants programs – which help us live our purpose of ‘powering communities for a brighter future’.
