Benefits in the spotlight
-
Health and wellbeing support
At Lendlease our purpose is “Together we create value through places where communities thrive”. We believe our own Lendlease community deserves to thrive, which is why we actively look out for
our people’s safety, both physical and psychological, to create a better future for our employees. -
Mental health support
We believe looking after our mental health is just as important as our physical health, which is why we incorporate both mental and physical safety as part of the global minimum requirements across our business. Lendlease is a founding member of the Building Mental Health Framework and has over 175 employees trained as active Mental Health First Aiders within the business.
