Woodside is committed to fostering an inclusive and diverse workforce culture, which is supported by our Compass values.

Our aim is to attract, develop and retain a truly diverse and high-performing workforce.

We encourage diversity of age, nationality, ethnicity, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, physical ability, cultural background, thinking styles, experience, family background, level of career commitment and education.

Inclusion at Woodside centres on all employees creating a climate of trust and belonging, where people feel comfortable to bring their whole self to work.

We offer supportive pathways for all employees to grow and develop leadership skills.

We encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and those seeking a more flexible working environment, including part-time opportunities.

Pride

Our Progress

We are proud of the progress we have made and we are committed to continuing to do more.

The number of female employees has grown year on year and currently sits at over 31.8% and Indigenous people represent 3.7% of our employee workforce*. In 2019, we achieved silver status in the Australian Workplace Equality Index. Our most important achievement isn’t in the data, it is about how our people feel when they come to work.
