Community Involvement

A team effort

At GSK Australia we encourage our employees to engage with the values of GSK in the Community: Work Global > Help Local.

It is essential to our business that we place people at the heart of everything we do. One of the most effective ways we can achieve this is by having our employees volunteer within the communities in which we operate. GSK provides all employees with an Orange Day; a day’s leave in which they can volunteer their skills and time at a community organisation of their choice.

GSK’s Community Council, committed and passionate employees from across the business, is responsible for responding to our local community projects and managing internal fundraising events. GSK employees are pleased to have raised over $10,000 in Movember and supported other events such as the Biggest Morning Tea, Shave for a Cure and Daffodil Day. GSK also supports individual employee fundraising efforts via an internal grants program, through which they can apply to have their fundraising efforts matched to a capped level.
