Reconciliation Action Plan
Leidos Australia has developed a Reconciliation Action Plan not just because it is the right thing to do, but also because it makes good business sense. As a proudly Australian organisation, we understand our responsibility to contribute towards reconciliation - within our company, our industry and in the communities in which we operate.
Our vision is for Leidos Australia to pay its role in supporting reconciliation by fostering a culture that promote equity, by establishing opportunities for First Nations People both within our organisation and through business partnerships, and by encouraging positive action throughout the Defence Industry.
We believe Leidos Australia can best practically contribute to advancing reconciliation by taking meaningful action in these key areas:
- We will provide a culturally safe environment for First Nations peoples by participating in activities, celebrations and learning opportunities; ensuring we are being inclusive at all times by providing a respectful and open workplace;
- We will ensure that our people understand what reconciliation is, why it is so important and have the opportunity to participate and celebrate in First Nations peoples activities;
- We will identify opportunities for First Nations peoples targeted recruitment, including the introduction of dedicated traineeships, and then ensuring we provide equal opportunity for career advancement within Leidos Australia; and
- We will increase our awareness of, and engagement with, First Nations’ enterprises, ensuring that they are considered equally when supply chain decisions are made, and increasing our annual spend with First Nations’ businesses.
