Our commitment to making an impact that matters

Our Responsible Business goal is to enable Deloitte to fulfil our mission to make an impact in our communities, by empowering our people to address big societal challenges.

Societal Innovation 

As technology reshapes the global economy, access to opportunity is becoming more complex and uncertain. Societal Innovation brings together people and technology to create pathways to progress - empowering talent to transform potential into future-ready skills, equipping the social sector with the capabilities to better reach communities, and convening ecosystems to scale solutions that benefit society.

Net-zero by 2040

As the global economy progresses towards a low-carbon future, Deloitte is working towards net-zero by creating pathways to progress to enable and scale this transition. Deloitte has committed to reaching net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across its value chain by FY2040, as measured at the aggregate, network-wide level. We are working together with Deloitte people, clients, suppliers, and ecosystem collaborators to transform our operations, reduce the environmental impact of Deloitte's business, and drive change across the network.

Fostering a culture of Inclusion

We want our people to feel confident in being themselves—in and out of the workplace. To feel they belong. To do this, we lean into our inclusion strategy that not only empowers our people to be themselves but educates and leads by example through inclusive leadership.

  • Supporting Indigenous Voices

Key Programs and Initiatives

Each year Deloitte Australia invests $30 million to make a positive impact in our communities. This contribution includes cash donations, pro bono work as well as skilled and general volunteering for not-for-profit organisations.

Deloitte has been committed to reconciliation for more than a decade. Read more about our latest RAP here.

We have key sponsorships with The Smith Family (Education), WWF (protects endangered species), SharingStories Foundation (collaborates with First Nations Communities to protect cultural heritage) and LiteHaus (digital learning across Asia Pacific). A further seven not for profit organisations build out our Workplace Giving Program.

Pro bono services are one of the most powerful ways we can make a social impact for our clients, community and planet. Deloitte’s aim is to integrate pro bono work with professional practice and develop a social leadership culture within the firm.

Impact Day is an iconic, culture-building event that shows how we can work together to make progress in the community. It’s Deloitte’s largest annual volunteering initiative, aligned to our global purpose of making an impact that matters.

Thousands of our Deloitte leaders and professionals across the country put down their usual work tools to make a positive contribution in our communities. On Impact Day, and every day, we do what we do best - work together, leveraging our collective brainpower and efforts to drive social impact, strengthen our communities, and help change lives.

Our workplace giving program enables our people to make financial donations pre-taxed and dollar matched by the firm towards causes they most care about. Our people can join this program for as little as $2 a month.

OYW is a key part of our commitment to fostering social impact. The Deloitte & OYW leadership development program aims to identify and inspire high-potential young talent within Deloitte globally. This year-long experience focuses on honing leadership skills and providing opportunities to contribute to our WorldClass and WorldClimate ambitions. Participants benefit from leadership mentoring, skills development sessions, attendance at a global summit, and involvement in a WorldClass or WorldClimate project.

“The experience was incredibly positive for me. I built a strong network of peers from around the world I’m still talking to. The quality of speakers was second to none – giving a real opportunity to learn what frameworks and lessons are working in what context across climate, education, mental health, peace and resettlement and the food crisis at all levels: from community initiatives to multi-national and federal governments.  In short, I couldn’t recommend it more for anyone wanting to apply for the Montreal 2024 summit.”- Elizabeth de Szoeke, OYW Delegate 2023. 

At Deloitte, we are unwavering in our commitment to combating modern slavery and human trafficking in all forms. Our Modern Slavery Statement outlines the comprehensive measures we take to ensure ethical practices throughout our operations and supply chains. By upholding the highest standards of integrity and responsibility, we strive to protect the rights and dignity of all individuals involved in our business activities.
