\n Diversity, Equity and Inclusion <\/h1>\n
\n Across Australia, our colleagues bring a wide range of backgrounds, experiences and perspectives to their work. This diversity strengthens our teams and the customers and communities we support. <\/div>\n

Our DE&I starting point is that everybody counts<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
\n
\n

Diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) sit alongside our\u00a0TRUE Values<\/a>, and shape how we work. We\u2019re a global facilities services business that employs over 130,000 individuals, who speak multiple languages and represent many cultures, religions and beliefs. An inclusive, non-discriminatory approach is a basic expectation of how we operate as a business.<\/p>\n

Through our Great Place to Work\u2122 certification, colleagues have reinforced that OCS is a physically safe place to work, where people are treated fairly and with respect, regardless of who they are.<\/p>\n

We have a responsibility to acknowledge and respect, the different perspectives our colleagues bring to their work, and to create an environment where those differences are valued. Our approach to DE&I is practical and grounded. It\u2019s about treating people fairly, listening to different viewpoints, and continuing to improve how we support colleagues across the business.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \n \n \n <\/div>\n <\/div> <\/div>\n <\/section>\n \n\n

DE&I Commitments<\/h2>\n

Across Australia, our leaders and teams are responsible for supporting our DE&I commitments in ways that reflect local communities and workplaces.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n
