Diversity at Western Power

Some event regarding those topic

Our company is dedicated to diversity and inclusion, focusing on women, ethnic minorities, and the LGBTIQA+ community. Western Power actively recruits diverse candidates and have mentorship programs to support their growth.

Welcoming feeling of diversity in all areas. All the graduates (around 20) 1 woman, problem with the sector in general though...

Very diverse workplace in all respects. Retention is apparently an issue, with people taking offers from mining companies and contractors offering a higher wage. For engineers apparently there is a cap to progression with limited opportunities for advancement above senior engineer.

Company considers all ethics and shown respect to all communities. Considered a safe place to work.

They do a lot in the company to try and promote diversity within the business. They have improved the parental leave policies to make it both applicable to both parents. They run events to support women, ethnic minorities and the LGBTIQA+ community too. Most people in the office are open to diversity, however the mindset of some people are not as open.

Our workplace is respectful and inclusive of many diverse individuals. The office has people from different ethnicities, different sexualities and in general, people with diverse perspectives.

Acceptance of different people with different backgrounds is excellent at Western Power. There are regular presentations and also training modules on diversity, inclusion and familiarisation on indigenous culture.

Essentially all forms of diversity are considered; culture, gender, age, etc. Always celebrations/events for these

Support from execs - Diversity & Inclusion groups established with generous budget

Multiple diversity & inclusion events hosted throughout the year, with a push on going to these events during work hours.

Head office hosts many breakfasts/teas etc.

Lots of Diversity and inclusion targets in the business and this is actioned by everyone, with specific support groups available for everyone.

This is a very PC company so I think diversity comes before some other KPIs

Scholarship programs, works with organisations that provide paid workplace opportunities for persons with less privileged backgrounds.
