Our people come from diverse backgrounds, with their own unique skills and talents. This helps us create a strong and dynamic organisation where we foster innovation, curiosity and diversity of thought.
We not only treat everyone fairly, we celebrate the breadth and diversity of experiences and perspectives that people bring to Grant Thornton.
"LGBTI+ inclusion in the workplace is fundamentally important. Working at Grant Thornton, I feel like this is a safe environment. This is an environment where I can flourish and where my uniqueness is something that can be harnessed."
DAWN – our Diversity at Work Now committee – seeks to build awareness, headline and celebrate diversity and create an inclusive and welcoming work environment across each office. Local committees in each of our Australian offices drive the celebration of diversity for all our people.
Nationally, DAWN leads the organisation and celebration of events such as:
Supporting and empowering the full spectrum of individuality.
We proudly launched PRISM – our LGBTI+ & Allies Network – on Wear It Purple Day 2018. PRISM exists to provide a platform of support for our LGBTI+ employee community and their allies with the aim of creating an inclusive workplace where our people feel they can bring their whole selves to work.
The focus of the network is to promote a respectful, supportive and equitable culture and to work collectively to increase the visibility of LGBTI+ initiatives.
Our Champions for Action are Australian business figures leading the charge for gender diversity. Each Champion has shared a variety of challenges, success stories, advice and practical solutions for addressing gender parity at the senior management level.
Grant Thornton is proud to be associated with a number of organisations that support diversity in our workplace, including:
We support diversity in the workforce and recognise the rights of our lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) team members to live and work, free of prejudice and discrimination, with all the essential freedoms enjoyed by other members of our organisation and the broader community.
