How has the Partner engaged with the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island businesssector? What actions have they taken to reconciliation? Any special programs, projects or collaborations? E.g. RAPs, employment, procurement
Nationwide is taking meaningful steps on its reconciliation journey, with a draft Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) already in development. To ensure its impact is both significant and measurable, we are committed to engaging in deeper consultation. We are proud to already employ Aboriginal people in full-time roles within our company and are dedicated to fostering a safe and culturally sensitive workplace for First Nations individuals.
Why did the Partner sign up with Kinaway? What was the driving factor?
Nationwide provides services across Australia, with our Head Office and 24/7 Customer Support Centre proudly based in Port Melbourne, on Bunurong land. We are dedicated to building partnerships with organisations that are Victoria-focused, as part of our commitment to honouring and supporting Indigenous businesses close to our cultural roots.
What is the Partner’s mission or aim in supporting the Indigenous economy? How will Kinaway member businesses benefit from this partnership?
Nationwide is a rapidly expanding company with over 200 employees across our security, technology, and car parking divisions. In addition to creating employment opportunities for underrepresented communities, we are committed to integrating Indigenous businesses into our supply chain. We aim for our Indigenous engagement to stand out as a key differentiator when tendering. By fostering genuine partnerships with Indigenous businesses and communities, we strive to bring unique value to our clients and stakeholders, reflecting our dedication to inclusivity, innovation, and social responsibility. This will also generate increased opportunities for Kinaway member businesses.
