Our Communities
Fletcher Building is committed to looking after the communities in which we operate. As an organisation with operations around the globe, our local managers
take leadership roles in community investment and activities to make a positive impact. Activities range from cultural to educational, environmental to health-focussed and often involve partnerships with third parties. $2m Over $2 million in donations to various community organisations or initiatives across our global footprint in FY18 DONATIONS AND VOLUNTEERING Fletcher Building donated over $2 million to various community organisations or initiatives around the world this financial year. Recipient organisations included local city missions, mental and physical health organisations, community park and beach clean ups, mentoring programmes and local community sports clubs, as well as in-kind donations of food, personal and household supplies and blankets as part of our annual internal appeals. We also supported our communities through employee volunteering days. In response to the devastating cyclone Gita, several of our New Zealand businesses including Dimond Roofing and PlaceMakers worked together to donate building products to help rebuild the homes of people in the communities hardest hit in Tonga. 42 Fletcher Building Limited Annual Report 2018

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT Engaging and consulting with our communities, iwi and indigenous people to build relationships and a better understanding of needs on both sides are important for our business operations. We work closely with iwi on joint housing development ventures, roading projects and quarry operations. Across the business we are taking positive steps forward through cultural training sessions, language lessons and diversity programmes and engaging outside counsel to advise and facilitate workshops where appropriate. As part of our usual operations, our projects, residential developments and manufacturing sites regularly host community open days and stakeholder engagement meetings.
