Diversity is important at Thiess. We are focused on providing excellent work opportunities for all of our people, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders and women.

At Thiess we have a culture of generosity and actively supporting the communities in which we work and live, committing time and financial resources to local charity and not-for-profit organisations.

Thiess' social responsibility program, Care, enables each employee to make a real difference.

Through Care, the company supports local communities by offering grants to worthy community initiatives that have long-lasting benefits. The program also supports workplace giving and matches employee contributions dollar-for-dollar. Volunteer leave is also available. Our people can take one day each year to support a registered charity or not-for-profit organisation.

Every project represents a great opportunity to engage with the local communities and businesses – to provide employment and training opportunities as well as economic benefits through support and active involvement.

Whether it is through long-term partnerships with organisations, charity fundraisers or using our skills and resources to assist those in need, our teams ensure their contributions to our communities go beyond the requirements of simply delivering our projects.
