This was an important step for Monash IVF Group as we collaborated with our Diversity and Inclusion Council and together we continued to make good progress on our holistic diversity and inclusion agenda, with a key focus on gender diversity, LGBTIQ+ inclusion and reconciliation.
As we all continued to adjust in new ways of living and working, our people remained our highest priority. Our people engagement strategy focused on our people’s health and wellbeing, acknowledging the challenges faced throughout the second year of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Launching of a new intranet platform has enabled the effective sharing of amazing stories across Monash IVF Group which recognises our people’s contribution to the Group and allows for great everyday interaction amongst our people.
We continued to review our policies relating to flexible working and supported our teams to continue working in our clinics to meet the needs of our patients. A focus on professional development saw us launch our first inhouse mentoring program.
Our recent employee engagement survey confirmed the passion and pride our people have in our employer brand, which is the key driver in joining the organisation. The top reason for staying with Monash IVF Group was reported as being our commitment to our people demonstrated by career growth opportunities, personal development, relationships with teams and providing meaningful work. We are proud that, despite the challenges faced over the past 12 months, our engagement remains at its highest level and is recognised as a Culture of Success.
