Diversity

We are a culturally diverse organisation with a wide variety of people from different races and cultures. We celebrate the diversity of different ages, gender, ethnicity, physical ability, sexual orientation, religious belief, work experience, educational background, and consider it a competitive advantage.

Barwon Health is working toward creating a culture of inclusive practice.

​Mature Workforce​​​

With the ageing of the Australian population, it is now more important than ever to encourage experienced workers to remain in the workforce and to pass their skills and knowledge onto others. Aging faster than the rest of the State, particularly the people over 85 years of age. By 2021, nearly 25% of the population will be over 65 years of age. In Queenscliff and the Surf Coast this age group will comprise close to 50% of the population. The long-term success of any business depends on the ability to tap into a diverse body of talent, knowledge and skills. Age-friendly recruitment practices can widen the applicant pool to help you find the best person.​

Disability

We are an inclusive employer welcoming people from all backgrounds, and are increasingly investing more time and efforts in creating a disability confident organisation, which ensures inclusion and enables employment for people with disability.

We are driving increased efforts to provide support networks for employees with disability, including our existing EAP program, StaffCare, as well as partnering with external organisation that are able to come in and provide additional support to employees with disability if needed.

We treat all employees the same at Barwon Health, and encourage all people with disability to join our inclusive community.
