Firstgas

Got Your Back Programme

finalist
Wellbeing Award
New Zealand Energy Excellence Awards 2021

Firstgas Group has had a strong well-being focus since it formed in 2016. The company recognised, however, that if it was serious about truly supporting its people, it needed to take a broader approach that incorporated not only physical well-being, but the whole person.

It's done this through an initiative called Got Your Back - a programme of support designed specifically for Firstgas Group people, their whānau and community.

"Our people know we will laugh with them when times are good, support them when they need it, and that we've got their back." - Kellie O'Sullivan, General Manager People & Culture, Firstgas Group.
