Health, safety and wellbeing are our first priority

At Downer, health, safety and wellbeing are a strategic priority and an integral part of our approach to operational excellence. We are committed to proactive risk management, continuous improvement, and creating a workplace where people are empowered to speak up, adapt, and learn.

Visible, supportive leadership, open communication, and direct engagement with our people help us gain real insights, build trust, and align our systems with the realities of work. By listening and learning from those closest to the task, we design safer, smarter, and more effective ways of working.

This people-centred approach prevents harm, strengthens wellbeing, and develops resilient, high-performing teams. It ensures every individual can contribute, collaborate, and deliver safe, productive outcomes that create long-term value for our customers and communities.
