Indigenous Engagement

Supporting the future of Indigenous students

Increasing Indigenous engagement and participation is a priority, underpinning our commitment towards corporate social responsibility.

Wesfarmers first developed a Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) in 2009. Since then, it continued setting out what Wesfarmers, and in turn Bullivants, intends to do to drive towards our goal of a welcoming and inclusive workplace which reflects the diverse communities in which we operate.

We are committed and focus on making a positive impact and contribution to increase opportunities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and the broader communities. Our engagement includes the Bullivants Scholarship Program, a school-based traineeship with the Clontarf Foundation and Cultural Awareness Training for our team.

All contributions go towards the results of the Wesfarmers Reconciliation Action Plan
which is at the highest level ELEVATE.
