Diversity and Inclusion
It is a strategic priority for NAIF to build and maintain a diverse workforce with the technical skills to fulfil its purpose. NAIF believes that diversity of thought helps to build employee engagement, drive innovation and results, and allow it to respond effectively to the diverse needs of all stakeholder groups.
NAIF champions a constructive and inclusive culture that embraces the different perspectives, identities and experiences of its people. NAIF provides equal opportunity in all aspects of employment, including employment conditions, recruitment selection, remuneration, learning and development, and promotion.
NAIF is committed to Indigenous diversity and achieving a minimum 2.5 percent Indigenous employee representation, in line with the Australian Government policy target. During the reporting period NAIF had an Indigenous student working with the team in the head office in Cairns, who left just prior to period end to undertake further tertiary study. NAIF is planning recruiting to replace the position with another Indigenous student.
