We are thrilled to announce that Hays Australia has achieved Bronze Tier Status in the Australian Workplace Equality Index (AWEI), an esteemed LGBTQIA+ Inclusion Award.

As the extreme skills shortage has largely ended, inflation has lessened, and market predictability settles down, productivity has improved. And yet employers are still cautious about taking risks. No

At Hays, we’re committed to fostering an inclusive workplace where everyone feels welcome, respected, and valued. In honour of Pride Month, we’d like to take the opportunity to highlight the initiatives we’ve implemented over the past year to support our LGBTQIA+ colleagues, as well as sharing our plans for this year’s Pride Month celebrations.

This National Reconciliation Week, we wanted to take the opportunity to share the progress we’ve made since the launch of our inaugural Innovate Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) in August last year.
