Rewarding careers start here
Parental Leave Policy
Laing O’Rourke’s industry leading Parental Leave Policy is accessible to all employees, regardless of how they become a parent. Primary Carers can access 26 weeks leave on full pay, and an additional 6 months unpaid leave (and a further 12 months by agreement). We also pay superannuation for the period of paid and unpaid leave up to a total of 12 months. Partners/Non-Primary Carers can access 3 weeks leave on full pay, and an additional 1 week unpaid leave on request.
Learning and Development
At Laing O’Rourke, we offer world-class programmes aimed at developing skills at all levels. We are committed to supporting our people and developing their capabilities so they can grow and build an exciting and challenging career filled with new opportunities.
Health and Wellbeing
Our employees and their families have access to free confidential counselling sessions with qualified counsellors and support services through our Employee Assistance Program. Our annual health and wellbeing program also includes access to free flu vaccinations and skin cancer checks.
Employee Discounts
Our employee discount platform gives our people exclusive access to discounted gift cards, travel and accommodation, online savings and cashback rewards with hundreds of retailers across Australia.
Health Cover & Insurance
Laing O’Rourke has partnered with Bupa to offer our people and their immediate family members discounted health insurance, waived waiting periods and a reimbursement of $500 hospital excess annually. Through the Laing O’Rourke Australian Retirement Trust Corporate Superannuation plan, we provide standard death, total and permanent disability cover for all eligible salaried employees.
Volunteer leave
Our people can access one paid day each year for volunteer leave. You can volunteer at any not-for-profit or social enterprise, either as an individual or in a group with your colleagues. Volunteering not only helps Laing O’Rourke to support local communities, it also gives our people a sense of satisfaction and purpose in giving back to the charitable organisation of their choice.
