White Spot Group is pleased to announce the formal endorsement by Reconciliation Australia of our Reflect Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP).
‘I was amazed by the beautiful First Nation cultures, and I was impressed by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples spiritual connection to the land, and their remarkable strength and resilience in times of adversity’ said WSG CEO, Benji Kushwaha. ‘The RAP articulates the actions and commitments that WSG will undertake in the course of successive RAPs. We take pride in being part of the reconciliation journey and are genuinely excited to witness a more united Australia.’
White Spot Group joins a network of more than 2,500 corporate, government, and not-for-profit organisations that have made a formal commitment to reconciliation through the RAP program.
The RAP program’s strength is its framework of relationships, respect, and opportunities, allowing an organisation to strategically set its reconciliation commitments in line with its own business objectives, for the most effective outcomes.
These outcomes contribute towards the five dimensions of reconciliation: race relations; equality and equity; institutional integrity; unity; and historical acceptance.
At White Spot Group, we believe that reconciliation is essential to build respectful and mutually beneficial relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and to take meaningful steps towards acknowledging and addressing the injustices faced by First Nations peoples.
The development of our RAP aligns with our company’s existing policy that places a strong emphasis on equality and diversity in the workplace. By implementing a RAP, we aim to enhance the sense of inclusion, respect, and understanding among our workforce, which will ultimately lead to a more harmonious and collaborative work environment.
WSG management team is highly supportive of reconciliation efforts and recognizes the importance of their leadership in driving change. Management Team will take responsibility for overseeing the RAP’s implementation and actively promoting its objectives throughout the organization.
WSG mission is to work in partnership with our clients to:
- Deliver a high standard of performance and superior results
- Achieve excellence in customer service and 100% satisfaction
- Promote cleanliness, hygiene, safety and productivity in the workplace
We aim to be the leading cleaning and facility management company in Australia through:
- Best industry work practices and continuous improvement
- Use of sustainable and safe products and practices
- Investment in staff training and proper remuneration
- Providing a safe, healthy, and respectful work environment
To ensure widespread awareness and understanding of the RAP’s significance, we will conduct thorough training and communication sessions for all employees. These efforts will educate our staff about the historical context of reconciliation, the purpose of the RAP, and the positive impact it can have on our workplace and beyond.
Moreover, our RAP will outline specific actions and initiatives that White Spot Group will undertake to actively contribute to reconciliation. This may include participation in activities, celebrations and events, promoting and supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander-owned businesses, creating opportunities for First Nations employment and career development, giving back to indigenous communities via charity events.
The development of our Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) is driven by our workplace’s commitment to equality, diversity, and respect for all cultures. We intend to approach its implementation by involving all staff, led by our management team, and promoting awareness and understanding of its importance throughout White Spot Group. Through these efforts, we hope to make meaningful contributions to reconciliation in Australia and foster a more inclusive and harmonious work environment.
