Flexible Working
At Laing O’Rourke we know that flexible working practices can help employees balance the changing demands of work and personal life while contributing to improved productivity and job satisfaction. Flexible work arrangements are available to all our people, on site and in offices, and can be utilised in various forms including the hours you work, the places you work from and the way you take leave.
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.
All of our people have access to thousands of self-paced development opportunities through LinkedIn Learning. Courses are broken into manageable sections and you can choose from a huge variety of mediums and subject matter to find exactly what you’re looking for, at exactly the right time.
Health and Wellbeing
Our employees and their families have access to 6 free confidential counselling sessions with qualified counsellors and support services through our Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
Our annual health and wellbeing program also includes access to free flu vaccinations, skin cancer checks and health 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. The discounts are offered in a variety of ways, including special cashback offers that you can withdraw to your bank account, discounted online shopping and discounted vouchers to use in store.
Health Cover & Insurance
Laing O'Rourke has partnered with Bupa, one of Australia's leading private health funds, to offer all employees access to health care options that provide members with flexibility and very competitive premiums.
Through the Laing O’Rourke superannuation plan, we provide standard death, total and permanent disability cover for all eligible employees. Additionally, Laing O’Rourke subsidises half the cost of the income protection cover for eligible employees who choose our corporate plan.
Superannuation
Australian Retirement Trust is our default fund, automatically contributing superannuation, giving our people access to low administration fees and a broad range of additional benefits. Alternatively, you can choose to direct superannuation contributions to a regulated, complying superannuation fund of your choice.
Volunteer leave
Our people can access 2 days of paid volunteer leave at any non-for-profit organisation, either as an individual or in a group with your colleagues. Volunteering not only helps Laing O’Rourke to support local communities, it also helps to provide our people with a sense of satisfaction and purpose in giving back to the charity of your choice.
