SA Power Networks

Recently, we had a Wear it Purple Day morning tea. It was great fun and made me feel extremely included and valued. Recruitment often tries to get an even (or at least closer to even) split between male and female candidates. There's a real range of people from different ethnicities in my office, which is great to see. We have a world map in the kitchen where people can put stickers for where they've come from, and often have lunches that celebrate cuisine from different cultures. There's also been a strong focus on inclusion with presentations around the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower lanyard, and lots of talk and activities for our Reconciliation Action Plan.

I have observed a respectful and inclusive workplace where people from different backgrounds and experiences are encouraged to contribute. SA Power Networks also recognises and supports inclusion through initiatives such as Wear It Purple Day and many more, which helps raise awareness and show support for LGBTQIA+ employees and the wider community. These activities, along with accessible development opportunities and supportive colleagues, help create a workplace where people feel comfortable being themselves.

Recruitment and opportunities are given to anyone with the correct qualification.
