Stakeholder engagement<br />
As outlined in the Stakeholder<br />
Engagement section of this report,<br />
we are committed to engaging with<br />
our key stakeholders – our customers,<br />
our suppliers, the wider community,<br />
employees and government. As such, we<br />
have created stakeholder engagement<br />
plans for all our projects which help us<br />
identify who our stakeholders are in each<br />
community and the most appropriate ways<br />
to engage with them. Our stakeholder<br />
engagement plans also ensure we have<br />
a consistent approach to community<br />
engagement across the property portfolio.<br />
Our local contribution<br />
We are developing a local employment<br />
policy which seeks to:<br />
• Recognise our role in our local<br />
economies,<br />
• Contribute to the skills base of<br />
our local communities,<br />
• Facilitate employment, training<br />
and skills development in our<br />
local communities.<br />
We contribute to our local economies<br />
in a variety of ways. We provide<br />
a range of services and facilities to<br />
accommodate numerous employment<br />
opportunities in our communities. We<br />
will continue to invest in our properties<br />
to build local employment infrastructure<br />
and to develop partnerships with<br />
our suppliers, customers and the<br />
service sector to identify economic<br />
development opportunities.<br />
We are committed to undertaking a<br />
range of local employment and economic<br />
development initiatives where we will:<br />
• Measure our economic contribution<br />
to our local communities in operations<br />
and construction,<br />
• Develop online training programs<br />
in the areas of security and diversity,<br />
• Develop partnerships to facilitate<br />
social enterprises,<br />
• Facilitate partnerships with key<br />
community groups and our suppliers<br />
to encourage local employment and<br />
diversity initiatives,<br />
• Continue to provide training and<br />
development opportunities through<br />
partnerships with education<br />
providers (such as TAFE for<br />
the Green Hills Retailer Rookie<br />
Program) and key social service<br />
providers to create youth initiatives<br />
(e.g. Stockmotion@Rockhampton),<br />
• Investigate opportunities to build on<br />
the education and development of<br />
our tenants in the areas of financial<br />
training modules and environmental<br />
sustainability initiatives with our<br />
retailers and tenants.<br />
