Crown Melbourne
Crown Melbourne has been recognised as an Employer of Choice in The Australian Business Awards 2014. The Australian Business Award for Employer of Choice recognises organisations which have developed leading workplaces that maximise the full potential of their workforce through practices that demonstrate effective employee recruitment, engagement and retention.
As Victoria’s largest single-site employer with an annual payroll of $400 million, Crown Melbourne is committed to investing heavily in their employees with a dedicated recruitment team, comprehensive induction, a highly successful learning and development arm, and many reward and recognition schemes. Over 4,600 qualifications have been issued to Crown employees on Learning Pathways programs. In addition, Crown Melbourne offers numerous employee benefits, such as a gym, free meals, fully maintained tailored uniforms, frequent and varied forms of communications, and well-developed employee recognition programs.
Diversity is championed at Crown Melbourne with employees representing over 40 nationalities. The Indigenous Employment Program has increased the number of Indigenous Australians employed by 1,850% and over 31 per cent of managers are female. A Disability Employment Services Program has steadily increased the number of employees knowingly employed with a disability.
