Industries

With our highly experienced team of Aboriginal consultants, you can recognise how to engage with Aboriginal employees and the Aboriginal culture with sensitivity and respect. Yarnnup has an extensive database of stakeholders across multiple sectors to help your organisation build alliances and create authentic change for Aboriginal people and businesses. The industry clusters we consult for include:

Construction and building services

The Australian Government has recognised the need for engaging with our Aboriginal community by building structures that promote Aboriginal cultural engagement and connection whilst acknowledging the traditional owners of our land. Our Aboriginal consultants will work with your construction team every step of the way to ensure your building or structure evokes Aboriginal artistic design principles and awareness to inspire connection.

Quick-service restaurants

Yarnnup’s design for the country’s Aboriginal awareness is an effective way to improve cultural engagement and connection while acknowledging the traditional custodians of the land where your business operates. Show your Aboriginal employees you acknowledge their roots, traditions, and the broader community with commissioned Aboriginal art. If you work in hospitality, our branded assets will create a shared story to resonate with the community.

Government departments and service providers

Our Aboriginal Cultural Capability Training is a relationship development program to foster cultural connection between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal employees. From Aboriginal Cultural Awareness to Team Building Through Trust & Emotional Intelligence, Unconscious Bias & Diversity training and more, all our training programs are designed within an Aboriginal lens and context to correct personal biases and benefit the professional development and relationships between colleagues.

Finance and Healthcare Technology

With enrolment rates in health-related courses for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students increasing from 27 to 61 per 10,000 between 2001 and 2018, it’s never been more essential for businesses in the healthcare sector to promote an Aboriginal culture training framework to develop cultural competency.

With plenty of opportunities to climb the corporate ranks in financial services, our training packages are delivered with Aboriginal context to evoke employees’ awareness of self and others.

Architecture and design

We work alongside your architects to design with the country’s First Nation people in mind and implement Aboriginal cultural significance into your next project development. You can rely on our team to ensure that your project reflects Aboriginal cultural design principles specific to the local Traditional Owners of this land, from structural elements to public art on fixed assets.

Transport and logistics

Yarnnup can help your organisation recruit, evaluate, place and retain high-quality Aboriginal team members that promote diversity. We can work closely with you to form a larger organisational initiative, such as a Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP), to take meaningful action to close the gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians and create a culturally safe, inclusive workplace. We can also develop a standalone Aboriginal employment plan for your business.
