The Qantas Group is committed to working in partnership with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander (Indigenous) Australians to promote reconciliation through initiatives that include community activities, partnerships, support for Indigenous enterprise and employment.
RECONCILIATION ACTION PLAN The Qantas Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) is now in its third year of implementation since its launch in November 2007. It demonstrates the Group’s commitment to reconciliation between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and other Australians and is a positive step toward fostering reconciliation in the broader Australian community. The RAP (see initiatives below) can be viewed at qantas.com/reconciliation.
EMPLOYMENT The RAP outlines Qantas’ support for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people through access to job opportunities across the Qantas business. Qantas has also established university cadetships and school-based traineeships to support Indigenous students into employment with Qantas.
