Ingham’s has launched its Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan as part of an ongoing commitment to support inclusion, equity and diversity.
At a launch in South Australia, Ingham’s CEO and Managing Director Andrew Reeves said the company has an inclusion, equity and diversity framework which sets the foundations to ensure it’s fostering an “inclusive and constructive culture”.
“A key goal for Ingham’s has been the launch and implementation of a Reconciliation Action Plan, to support greater opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and I am proud to say we are making good on that commitment today,” he continued.
“We have a range of initiatives underway to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in our business and in the community. This includes sponsoring CareerTrackers and supporting university students in our business. We also provide two First Nations scholarships through NIDA to encourage increased Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander representation in the arts.
“With our national presence, we also have wonderful opportunities to do more going forward, for example, by exploring opportunities to include Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander businesses in our supply chain, which for every $1 can generate $4.41 of social return. It becomes a very powerful agent for change when your investment can deliver four times the value.”
