Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

false
At Suncorp, diversity, equity and inclusion are fundamental to building a resilient, innovative, and sustainable organisation. We are dedicated to fostering a workplace where our people feel valued, respected, and empowered to contribute their best.
false
It's important to us that our people feel like they can bring their whole selves to work. To foster this, Suncorp takes an intersectional approach to diversity and inclusion. In addressing the systems that present barriers to full and equal participation in the workforce, we can better respond to our people and our customers. Suncorp’s Diversity & Inclusion Policy sets clear expectations for equitable treatment, fair processes and a culture that actively values diverse experiences. It applies to all work-related activities and interactions with customers and the community.

We deliver on our commitments through a focus on:

Gender equality & closing our gender pay gap – Maintaining a dedicated focus on sustainably reducing our gender pay gap year on year, while driving pay equity and supporting a balanced workforce, with a target of 50% representation of women in senior leadership. We maintain compliance with Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) requirements and are committed to transparent reporting, including through Mind the Gap NZ.

Accessibility & disability inclusion – Providing workplace adjustments and a dedicated Disability & Accessibility Hub, supported by clear standards and processes, while ensuring our products and services are inclusive and accessible through guidelines, training and ongoing improvements.

Age diversity – Supporting a multi-generational workforce by valuing the contribution of employees at all life stages, maintaining representation of mature-age employees, and offering programs to help people plan and navigate career transitions and future pathways.

LGBTQ+ inclusion – Creating a safe, inclusive and respectful workplace through inclusive policies, benefits such as paid gender affirmation leave, employee support initiatives, and recognition through external benchmarks.

We recognise that trans and gender diverse applicants may have questions about workplace inclusion and support before applying or during the recruitment process. Individuals are welcome to contact our Diversity, Equity & Inclusion team at DL-Diversity-Equity-and-Inclusion@suncorp.com.au for further information about LGBTQ+ inclusion at Suncorp.

Cultural & racial equity – Building cultural capability and raising racial literacy across our organisation, supporting inclusive leadership through targeted development, and fostering a workplace where diverse cultural perspectives are understood, respected and reflected in our decisions and actions.

First Nations inclusion – Fostering a culturally safe and inclusive workplace where First Nations perspectives, cultures and experiences are respected, valued and reflected in our people practices and leadership.

Spotlight: Suncorp's reconciliation journey

Suncorp has been part of Reconciliation Australia’s Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) network since publishing our first RAP in 2018.

Grounded in our purpose — to build futures and protect what matters — our reconciliation vision is an Australia where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are empowered to thrive.

Through our reconciliation journey, we are committed to walking alongside Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples by listening to their knowledge, respecting their connections to Country and valuing their contributions to our organisation and communities.

Our First Nations Employment Plan puts these commitments into action by supporting access to career opportunities and the attraction, retention and development of First Nations employees.

Explore your career with Suncorp
If you are Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander, we invite you to explore current opportunities and discover how you can build your career with us. Visit our Careers page.
