2019 Golden Star winners

2019-12-06

Congratulations to our 2019 Golden Star employee award winners who all demonstrated an ability to impact the lives of our colleagues, customers and our communities.

Each year we recognise exceptional achievements from 5,800 employees across our business in Australasia for the Golden Star Awards.

This year we received close to 300 nominations from teams across Australia and New Zealand in front-line, operational and management roles.

With categories designed to reflect our values of Passion, Performance, Innovation, Commitment, Safety and Partnership, the Golden Star Awards recognise our high achievers who have consistently demonstrated the ability to go the extra mile and truly make a difference to the lives of our colleagues, customers and our communities.

A CEO Award was granted to a team from our Sydney Light Rail business who volunteered their time for the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre.

The winners received their Golden Star award and $1500 travel voucher at a ceremony in Melbourne on Friday 29 November.

Congratulations to our journey makers who showed the impact that one person can have on their team and our community.
