Case study Setting foundations for our people to shape the future In FY25, we reset our purpose and values. While our previous purpose and values served us well, we wanted to better reflect our evolved strategy, ambition for the future and commitment to understanding changing stakeholder expectations. Our refreshed purpose – be the link between people, places and progress – reflects who we are today and our ambitions for the future. It recognises our work at the intersection of infrastructure, mobility, technology and policy, and our ability to connect physical infrastructure with digital and personal experiences.
Our values – start with our customer; show up with an open mind; solve it together and set the standard – reflect what is unique about us and how our people show up every day.
Our purpose describes how we are the link between people (our customers, partners and communities), places (on and off the road) and progress (delivering on what matters most to positively impact the future).

This year, our employee HSE action plans continued to encourage accountability for a healthy and safe work environment, minimise our impacts to the environment, and continue to build a positive HSE and road safety culture. With more than 25,000 employee HSE observations recorded in FY25 (see Figure 25), our people identified, raised awareness of, or took action to address workplace HSE issues. 2
The safety performance of our North American operations was also recognised in FY25, receiving the 2024 Corporate Safety Award from the Northern Virginia Chapter of the American Society of Safety Professionals. Award recipients demonstrate exemplary safety performance, measured by workplace illness and injury performance rates that are better than the national average.
safe workplaces for our employees, contractors, and visitors.
In FY25, we implemented a program of employee HSE initiatives, including regular talks focused on mental health, wellbeing and road safety. We also provided opportunities for employees to attend guided safety walks at key locations on our assets, including the Habitat Filter and Burnley Tunnel in Melbourne. These walks were a great way for employees to see our assets through
