We're really pleased to see that you're happy with the hours you are working and working alongside a great team. Our senior leadership teams rely on our front line workers and it is their intent that all colleagues feel valued, can be themselves, and that they have a voice. We hope that you have taken the opportunity with the recent Talk back survey to share how you are feeling. Alternatively, tell your colleague voice representative what really matters to you so that this can be shared with leaders in the business.
