EVERYONE BELONGS.
We are an Employer of Choice for Gender Equality citation holder, endorsed by the Workplace Gender Equality Agency, and we want to ensure that the engineering and construction industry is one where each and every person feels valued. At Clough we are committed to fostering an inclusive environment that accepts and recognises every person, embraces their strengths and differences, and provides opportunities for all people to achieve their highest potential.
Diversity brings broader knowledge, perspectives, ideas, and experiences to our projects, and that is invaluable to our community, our business, and our clients.
We're building a diverse and inclusive workforce.
We strive to ensure our workforce reflects the communities in which we work and live, and have built a team of extraordinary talents from a wide range of cultures, backgrounds and skills. This diversity is what makes Clough a great place to work.
Our commitments run in parallel with our actions. We are ever-evolving, continually developing new and better ways forward for our people and our business. We are proud of the recognitions we have been awarded and commit fully to upholding and growing on our commitments every single day.
Shared Values. Shared Success.
We aim to attract, develop and retain people who embody Clough’s principles in the way they think, lead and work. Our people are highly capable and committed to excellence, bringing the skills, experience and mindset needed to deliver strong outcomes.
Just as importantly, we value individuals who are motivated to collaborate, innovate and actively contribute to the long-term success of our business, our clients and the communities in which we operate.
Our commitment to equality.
Clough is committed to fostering an inclusive workplace where everyone has equal opportunity to thrive.
In 2024, Clough was awarded its third Employer of Choice for Gender Equality (EOCGE) citation by the Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA). We are proud to be among a small number of organisations in our industry to receive this recognition. Clough first achieved EOCGE status in the 2019–20 assessment period, reflecting our sustained focus on gender equality over time.
We are also a proud partner of Pride in Diversity, Australia’s first and only national not-for-profit employer support program dedicated to LGBTQIA+ workplace inclusion.
In addition, Clough is an active member of CEOs for Gender Equity and an approved WORK180 Endorsed Employer for All Women. This recognition reflects the range of initiatives we offer to support our people, including flexible working arrangements, 16 weeks of paid parental leave for primary carers, and access to a broad suite of learning and development programs.
Our reconciliation journey.
Clough’s third Innovate Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) was endorsed by Reconciliation Australia in April 2024.
Since the commencement of our RAP journey in 2020, we have embedded 117 actions and initiatives to drive positive change for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples by delivering employment, education, and business opportunities and providing our workforce with experiences to reflect on and immerse themselves in the world’s oldest continuing living cultures.
Our vision for reconciliation is to: enable equal participation for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples across the nation-building projects we deliver. We will achieve this by delivering meaningful opportunities and pathways to employment, enhancing supplier diversity, and fostering a workforce and environment that embraces, respects, and celebrates the diverse cultures of First Nations Peoples.
Honouring Service. Empowering Careers.
Clough is proud to support veterans and service personnel whose skills, values and experience strengthen our business. Across our operations, veterans from the Army, Navy, Air Force, First Responders and Cadets bring leadership, resilience and teamwork to our teams.
As a signatory to the 'Veterans’ Employment Commitment', we are committed to creating meaningful employment opportunities and supporting successful transitions to civilian careers. Our respect for service is embedded in Clough’s history and values, inspired by our founder and decorated Anzac, John (Jack) Oswald Clough.
