We respect, appreciate and embrace differences. We know when people from different backgrounds, life experiences and perspectives work together, we create the most value – for our clients, our employees and the Victorian community.
We are committed to fostering a work culture that is diverse and inclusive. A diverse culture where our staff reflect the diversity of the Victorian community we serve and an inclusive culture where everyone feels valued, respected and able to be their authentic selves at work.
We support and promote a safe workplace and service for First Nations people, people from culturally diverse backgrounds, people with a disability, mature-age workers, lesbian, gay, bisexual, asexual, pansexual, transgender and gender diverse people, people with diverse sex characteristics (intersex) and queer (broadly LGBTIQA+) people.
Our Diversity and Inclusion Framework
The aim of our Diversity and Inclusion Framework is to build an inclusive, accessible and anti-racist workplace culture, which reflects the diversity of the community we serve.
The framework sets out our overarching vision for an increasingly inclusive and diverse organisation that respects every individual – their differences, backgrounds, and rights – and details the goals and principles that will guide our continued progress.

- Reconciliation Action Plan (2023–25)
