We recruit, develop, promote and pay our people in a way that supports our commitment to being more diverse and inclusive. To formally drive gender equality across Telstra and ensure a standard of equality across our recruitment process, our Recruitment Equality Procedure mandates a minimum female representation of 50 per cent on shortlists and interview lists for all roles (except some specified roles where a 35 per cent requirement applies due to a known significant gender imbalance in the job market).
Occupational safety and health
Managing safety and supporting the mental health and wellbeing of our people helps create an environment in which they can be their best selves – both at work and outside of it. Through our global health, safety, wellbeing and environment (HSWE) management system, we strive to embed the latest HSWE strategies to eliminate or minimise risks and build resilience. To help make more informed purchasing decisions, we continue to refine our Supplier Governance Framework, which assesses suppliers against twelve categories of risk, one of which is health and safety.
