Recognition of your work

For many, the ultimate reward comes via our Living our Values Awards. Each year we recognise and reward our LOVA People of the Year – those whose performance is an outstanding demonstration of our values and vision. Winners of the seven individual and six team awards receive a financial prize as well as the opportunity to nominate a registered charity the business will donate to.

Volunteering in action

Volunteers are essential, acting as the “glue” and “lifeblood” of many of the communities we operate in.

That’s why we encourage all employees to take part in group volunteering activities with recognised charities and community organisations. To support this, we offer all employees time off with pay for at least one day (or 7.5 hours) of volunteer work each year.

Our teams have invested thousands of volunteer hours with community-based programs such as The Big Umbrella, Foodbank, Landcare, and the Red Cross Blood Bank.
