Sustainability Code: We offer opportunities for employees to grow and develop, ensuring the capability of our people and encouraging innovation, learning and research. We ensure a diverse and equitable workforce, and support and respect the protection of internationally proclaimed human rights. We are committed to a safe and healthy workplace.
Our mission: Being the premier employer of the most capable people in our industry.

Our strategy is to improve and transform our business culture and processes by building the capability of our people to initiate and lead change for the future.

Management approach

Our management systems Aurion and HydroSafe track employee information and occupational health and safety incidents, mitigation and procedures. Hydro Tasmania has policies, processes and guidelines to support our aims for a safe and creative workplace and which define employee rights and responsibilities for occupational health and safety, education, training, equal opportunity, non-discrimination, complaints, grievances and the negotiation of employment conditions through union or other representation.

We comply with legislation for fair work, health and safety and anti-discrimination contained in the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth), Workplace Health & Safety Act 1995 (Tas) and Anti-Discrimination Act 1998 (Tas).

We have programs and processes for workforce planning, succession, attracting and retaining skilled staff, and developing the capability of our people. We monitor trends in the composition and turnover of our workforce and use this data in workforce planning and succession, and to understand our retention rates.

Our challenge is to develop a culture throughout the organisation that fits our aspiration to be a customer-driven business and that encourages the movement of key skills around the organisation so we are best placed to respond to the changing business environment. Our employee development programs address this challenge.
