Guiding Principles
-
Everyone belongs. We hold ourselves to account for creating a diverse, equitable and inclusive workplace every day observing how people are participating and checking in on sentiment in relation to belonging.
-
Safety is paramount. We watch out for each other, and we create a safe space for people to voice how they are feeling in relation to the workplace, inequities and lack of inclusiveness. We make it our business to be in the business of people, promoting and fostering safety in all that we do.
-
Systems and processes are central. We act as change agents and focus on systemic change. It is our role to enhance systems and processes to embed fairer, equitable and inclusive structures. This will result in better outcomes for all and fosters an inclusive and equitable culture into everything we do.
-
Rules of engagement. We connect with each other in a way that is accountable and responsible regardless of hierarchy or ego. This principle ensures that we all engage using the same philosophy and we create a culture that is uniquely ANSTO.
