Corporate Social Responsibility at KordaMentha

CSR does receive adequate attention.

Not a huge priority, given it would not be of relevance to our brand image like it is for bigger brands. We are also a financial service, so do not have a product that really relates to environmental or humanitarian issues. I would say that CSR is central to the work we do, being insolvency practitioners. We are essentially solving problems we didn't start, and must do so responsibly in order to get the best outcome for those we represent, which is usually creditors - suppliers, employees, lenders.

In my time at KM I haven't seen too much at an office based level. There is the occasional charity fun run and the like however there could be more done here.

I have not had the opportunity to work on any CSR projects/initiatives during my time at the company (due to COVID-19). However, we have numerous fundraising events each year (eg. bake sales, fun runs, etc).

Constantly working with a range of charities.

All staff are encouraged to engage in charitable pursuits. The firm supports causes such as bear cottage and runs chain reactions a cycling initiative run annually to raise money for charity.

Unsure of what projects/initiatives are in place

Haven't worked on any projects as of yet, though I understand this may be due to COVID. My firm works with Children's hospitals and does certain activities to raise money for cancer.

We regularly get involved in charity events and fundraisers; I have been involved in a few charity events and we have raised great amounts.

KordaMentha partakes in many events, for example: - Movember. - STEPtember. - Australia's Biggest Morning Tea. I have partaken in STEPtember since joining the firm, however the nature of CSR behaviour has changed due to COVID-19.
