Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander Peoples
PwC
Our vision for reconciliation
PwC Australia acknowledges and pays its respects to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the First Peoples of Australia, whose ancestral lands and waters we work and live on throughout Australia.
As a firm, we are committed to reducing the inequality experienced by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People. In Australia, reconciliation with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people is core to our national identity. We are proud of the contribution PwC has made to date, but we know there is still much more to do.
We continue to bring our skills, expertise and people to the challenge of making positive progress towards reconciliation. Our Reconciliation Action Plan demonstrates that we are continuing to challenge ourselves to do better, and upholding our responsibility to our communities.
Aspiring to be an employer of choice for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, we’re living our shared purpose through a commitment to significantly increase our Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander workforce. We believe that it's only through a diverse workforce that we're able to create meaningful change.
Another milestone our community is proud of is the launch of PwC’s Indigenous Consulting (PIC), in 2013. PIC is a separate member firm in the PwC global network which maintains an Indigenous majority owned, managed and 60% staffed operation. We like to think of PIC as a partnership between the world’s oldest living culture and one of the world’s largest professional services firms. This two-way relationship built on trust and respect is one part of our story, to demonstrate how we are living our values.
Gender equality
PwC
Creating equal opportunities for women
At PwC, we work hard to address issues of gender equality in the workplace. We create gender equality and diverse communities by empowering female career advancement. We solve society's most significant problems by viewing them through a holistic lens that includes diverse viewpoints.
We support all our people and challenge the stereotypes experienced by people of all genders. Furthermore, we actively address equality barriers and continuously create an inclusive culture.
As a Workplace Gender Equality Agency (WGEA) Employer of Choice for Gender Equality, we're proud to pursue gender equality throughout our firm. We ensure all our people (regardless of whether their unique differences are visible or not) receive equal support throughout their respective careers.
In like-for-like roles, our gender pay gap is 0 per cent. We recognise there is still a long way to go. We're also transparent about our overall pay gap of 11%, which we actively reduce. We maintain a fair and unbiased process for all pay and promotion decisions.
Developing the next generation of female leaders and seeing more women take up leadership positions is vital. So we've set some of the most progressive targets out there and work hard to ensure the process of paying and promotion is both fair and unbiased.
We are committed to creating a culture where women progress in their chosen careers without fear, concern or guilt of competing family or personal demands. We have benefits to support our culture that deliberately empower and enhance our drive for equality.
Our national employee-led gender equality network ([email protected]) runs events and forums within the firm and beyond to advance gender equality. This network facilitates the development of men and women through opportunities that connect, inspire and empower.
By the numbers
89% of our people feel their immediate manager supports gender equality.
83% of our people currently use one or more types of flexibility in their work.
0% pay gap in like-for-like roles at PwC Australia.

Disability programs
PwC
Committed to ensuring people with disabilities thrive
At PwC, we’ve been working towards a leading approach on disability employment in Australia, creating a workplace and culture which enables all our people with disability to identify and reach their full potential.
We recognise the role we play in shifting attitudes and creating equal employment opportunities for people with disability, and are committed to increasing awareness and inclusion within the firm and on a wider scale.
In 2015, we became the first professional services firm to lodge an Access and Inclusion plan with the Australian Human Rights Commission. We are gold members of the Australian Network on Disability and have a number of innovative initiatives in place to help remove barriers and transform the experience of people with disability within the firm.
Accessible employment
We encourage people with disability to apply and gain employment through our mainstream recruitment pathways and have worked to ensure all processes are accessible. As a firm, we also actively seek to employ people with disability through specialist programs, working with organisations such as Specialisterne Australia and The Australian Network on Disability, and through partnerships with Federal and State Governments employment campaigns.
Mental health support
We are proactive in addressing mental health with a strategy in place for ongoing workshops, workplace support and a network of mental health first aid officers. We provide support through our CARE (Coaching, Advice, Resilience and Empowerment) program, which is available to all staff and their immediate families.
In-house clinical services
All our people have access to in-house Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy and Psychology services through the Health and Wellness team for assessment and case management services.
Workplace Adjustment policy
We have implemented a centralised process for workplace adjustment requests during both recruitment and employment. We are also leading the way in creating accessible work environments that go beyond Disability Discrimination Act requirements.
National employee-led Network ([email protected])
We have a network that connects and supports people with disability, and those who care for someone with disability to help drive positive cultural change.
Disability awareness training
We provide training sessions to our people so they can become ‘disability confident’ and learn more about inclusive behaviours and language when working with people with disability.
Flexible work
Informal and formal flexible work arrangements are possible as part of our ‘All Roles Flex’ policy. Our people have the opportunity to work flexibly and in a way that works best for both themselves and their clients.
‘Dress for your Day’ policy
With no dress code in place, we embrace individual difference and trust our people to wear what they feel is appropriate and comfortable for the type of work they do in their day.
LGBTI+ support
PwC
Making a difference to the lives of LGBTI people
It’s easy to say our personal lives shouldn’t affect our work. But in reality, it does. No matter your sexuality, gender identity, gender expression, or intersex status, who you are and how you’re able to interact with others has a direct relationship on your performance.
At PwC, we believe that having a culture where our people feel valued for what they bring, will thrive and inspire others - irrespective of their sexuality, gender identity or intersex status.
An inclusive work environment where you can be open and honest about who you are enables all of us to perform at our best. Here, we are committed to creating the kind of environment where everyone can feel comfortable and confident being themselves. We are proud to be making a difference to the lives of LGBTI staff and members of our wider Australian community.
As a firm, we don't just believe in LGBTI inclusion, we actively support LGBTI inclusiveness in everything we do. We were one of the first professional services firms to support marriage equality, and actively advocated for and supported our people throughout the campaign. In the 2018 Australian Workplace Equality Index awards for LGBTI Inclusion, we won CEO of the Year, the Executive Leadership Award and were recognised as a Bronze Employer. We are proud members of Pride in Diversity and the global group OUT Leadership. And we have written thought leadership on LGBTI inclusion, most recently on same-sex attracted women.
PwC also supports its people by offering a transitioning and support policy to any person who chooses to transition and affirm their gender while working at the firm, including paid leave and allowances. Our policies for parental leave and personal/carers is also inclusive of same sex partners and families, and includes adoption, surrogacy and foster parents.
Training sessions are also run for PwC people on LGBTI inclusive language and behaviours. And senior LGBTI people can participate in our authentic leader’s coaching program.
Joining a number of other employee-led initiatives, the award winning [email protected] network (Gays, Lesbians and Everyone Else) is a community of like-minded individuals who are committed to championing diversity and creating a culture that ensures everyone can bring their whole selves to work. Anyone can join and become involved in the various initiatives and events organised and shared.
Cultural diversity
PwC
Creating a culturally diverse workforce
At PwC, we recognise the importance of having a culturally inclusive workforce, where all our people understand and appreciate different perspectives and worldviews, and interact successfully and respectfully with others across cultures.
We were the first professional services firm to set cultural diversity targets, whereby 30% of our partnership admissions will be from a culturally diverse background. We ensure pay and promotion is both fair and unbiased for people from diverse cultural backgrounds. And we provide training for our people on cultural awareness and cultural competency.
PwC has partnered with the Australian Human Rights Commission on thought leadership to promote cultural diversity in leadership and our CEO Luke Sayers is a founding member of the Leadership Council on Cultural Diversity.
We have a floating public holiday policy to support all of our people to celebrate days of cultural significance, participate in religious festivities or spend time with their family. Reflection spaces are also provided in every PwC office.
Anyone can join our national employee-led cultural diversity network ([email protected]) which provides an avenue for advice and support, in addition to celebrating cultural differences and increasing levels of awareness across the firm.
