2021 AWARDS FOR EXCELLENCE

PEOPLE FIRST This Award recognises firms that have implemented and delivered outstanding initiatives that benefit their people.

AWARD WINNER:

DESIGNINC SYDNEY FOR:

Organisational Policies and Initiatives

DesignInc Sydney has been recognised as this year’s Consult Australia 2021 People First Award Winners for Organisational Policies and Initiatives. As stated by DesignInc Sydney, they are driven not only by the desire to create beautiful places that are equitable and accessible for users, but they also want the people who design them to be happy and healthy – they want each member of their team to reach their personal and professional potential. The architecture and design sector has a reputation for having male-dominated, stressful work environments with long hours. At DesignInc they believe in fairness, equity, and opportunity for all, and actively take steps to understand how stressors and barriers operate within the organisation and the broader industry, and to challenge them. DesignInc recognise a range of hidden forces at play in the design and construction sector that make it easier for some people and ideas to succeed, and harder for others. They pride themselves on an organisational ecology where the managers listen, learn, and respond to the needs of the broader team, allowing them to understand the needs and sentiments of their team and to implement policies that address them. Their many myriad initiatives work together to create a culture of openness and inclusion and support their people across key areas of mental health and wellbeing, diversity, disability, gender equity and cultural equity. Their initiatives are having a positive impact within the organisation and leading the way in our industry.
