Diversity at Viva Energy Australia

We are known for being an employer of equal opportunity for women and I feel that you can see even walking around the office how diverse our workforce is.

The company prides itself on its commitment to a diverse and inclusive workplace.

It is really diverse, and I believe anyone from any race, religion or background would fit in and would not find it difficult to navigate their way in the company.

Working in a traditionally male dominated industry, the increasing numbers of women in the roles is nice to see

This is one of the pillars of the company. No bias is made to anyone of any background or experience. Also has (I believe) a 26 week maternity leave program.

They are really accommodating in respects to their commitment to diversity. They have maternity leave for both parents and additional types of leave for caregiving and work from home flexibility.

Making good progress.

Very good

Very welcoming and diverse company. As a woman in engineering it has been amazing.

The company has made a commitment to promoting all of the above diversity aspects. I have not seen any judgment from any individuals in terms of people expressing themselves. It is great to see such diversity within the management as well.

The company is extraordinarily diverse, in age, gender and colour.

It is great that Viva is involved with Career Trackers

The company aims to employee equally, based on merit rather than gender or ethnicity. They support organizations and run regular awareness programs. Everyone is treated with respect and get along really well.

Yes, we are very committed to a diverse workforce. Examples include: 1. We are the first company in Australia to offer employees a full-time superannuation payment of 12% base salary for up to five years during unpaid parental leave and part-time work periods 2. We have a LGBTIQ network which has been recently established and will be running a number of events throughout the year 3. Parental leave is widely taken by both men and women alike

They review all applications fairy and recruit from a diverse range of locations and are willing to assist approved applications to training by providing them support.

Commit to the Career Trackers program which helps so many students realise their own potential and worth.

They fund a large number of programs and communities to encourage education and fund a number of apprenticeships as well.

Every year, a number of Career Trackers interns from indigenous backgrounds undertake internships with the company, with many of these interns staying on as full time graduates once they complete university. Through Northern Futures, we support three year, $120,000 partnerships which provide scholarships that remove financial barriers to participation in Northern Futures programs for people experiencing mental illness or substance abuse. Since the program began in 2016, more than 30 students have received scholarships to support them remaining in education or gaining employment. These scholarships have ranged from $75 for a forklift licence, through to an $1800 grant to assist with childcare. From Jan 2018 - Dec 2022, Viva Energy and CFF will work together to empower young Indigenous Australians from four remote communities in QLD and NT to stay engaged in their schooling through culturally appropriate education. The focus of the partnership is on two CFF programs; Horizons Program and Activities Program which will benefit the young people and communities of Palm Island, Woorabinda, Wurrumiyanga and Galiwin�ku.
