Engaging Communities

Our investment in the community is driven by relationships, whether this be with our employees, our stakeholders or the communities in which we live and work. To build these relationships we work with charitable organisations to identify community needs, and to deliver strategic programs that meet these needs, and support our business outcomes.

We invest in programs through charitable contributions, community sponsorships, and via small grants to eligible grassroots organisations where our employees choose to volunteer.  We contribute time and financial support through our joint ventures as a continuous part of our commitment to address economic, environmental and social impacts of our business.
