Embracing Diversity & Inclusion at Queensland Rail

At Queensland Rail, we are committed to creating a workforce that reflects the rich diversity of the communities we serve. We recognise and celebrate that each person has unique needs and opportunities, and we strive to provide an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive and contribute their best. Here, connection counts, and our diversity is our strength.

Our Commitment to Diversity and Equal Opportunity

We embrace diversity and equal opportunity in every way, building a team that represents a variety of backgrounds, perspectives and skills. With significant progress in gender balance, First Nations Peoples, youth, disability and multiculturalism, we are proud of our diverse workforce. To foster an inclusive environment, we have established key programs such as QRWomen, Graduate and Apprentice Programs, Work and Welcome, and Employee Assistance Programs. These initiatives create pathways for all employees to learn, grow and develop, ensuring every moment and every connection counts.

Why Inclusion Matters

An inclusive workplace values people's different experiences, knowledge and skills, regardless of their background. We believe that a truly inclusive workplace not only respects but also celebrates the differences among us. By collecting workforce data, we better understand our diversity and continually develop programs to support it. Our Inclusion Council, established in 2020, plays a pivotal role in promoting a safe, respectful and valued workplace for all employees - ensuring that every voice is heard and every contribution is valued.
