Sustainability in this context means products or services that allow employees to make positive contributions to any of the Sustainable Development Goals, or that allows employees to contribute towards positive environmental and social impact outcomes.

Like the journey of safety over the last 20+ years, we believe embedding sustainability not only in our workplace, but in our personal lives as well, will be instrumental in nurturing enduring behaviours and improving sustainability outcomes for our people and the communities in which we interact. We are developing a wide range of initiatives to create a sustainability centric culture and mindset within our organisation for our people at work and at home.

KBR are open to all types of applicants to submit their innovations / expertise.

  2. What range of sustainable services are available in Australia that our employees could benefit from access to?
  3. What range of sustainable products are available in Australia that our employees could benefit from access to?
  4. What platforms or sustainability networks are available that may offer group purchasing discounts or other benefits?
  5. What sustainable product and service offerings are available that may attract tax incentives or offsets for our people within the Australian tax jurisdiction?

What's in it for you?
