Our Indigenous and Social
Inclusion Strategy and Stretch
Reconciliation Action Plan

Through our Indigenous and Social Inclusion Strategy and Stretch Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP), we demonstrate our commitment to providing participation opportunities in employment, training, and enterprises for Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander peoples and businesses throughout the life of our projects and across our operations.

Gender Equality Employer of Choice

Workplace Gender Equality Agency recognises EverPillar Contractors as an Employer of Choice for Gender Equality and has awarded us an official citation. .

Our Employer of Choice for Gender Equality citation formally recognises our commitment to achieving gender equality across our business. The citation recognises the ongoing efforts of EverPillar Contractors in several areas, including leadership, learning and development, closing the gender pay gap, workplace flexibility, the prevention of sex-based harassment and discrimination and targets for improving gender equality outcomes.

To affect positive social and economic change, we’ve developed an industry-leading Social Inclusion Procurement Policy, which has seen us create the industry's largest in-house online database of Aboriginal and social enterprise businesses.

Through this centralised database, EP Contractors has streamlined the qualification processes associated with working for us and enabled our projects and precontracts teams to easily identify and engage with Indigenous and Social enterprise businesses.

EverPillar Contractors has been working with CareerTrackers – a non-profit creating employment pathways and providing support systems for Indigenous youth – for over a decade.

We were the first corporate organisation to sign up for their ‘10x10 Program’, a 10-year commitment to providing meaningful internships to Indigenous students around Canada . Our partnership with CareerTrackers is a formal commitment to engage 25 new and existing Indigenous interns with at least 12 weeks of paid employment each year. Where suitable, we also consider each intern for the EP graduate program and other ongoing employment opportunities.
