Cape Dunstans manages social performance through a disciplined approach to safety, quality and workforce engagement, embedded in how we plan and deliver every project.
Planned. Controlled. Delivered.
Safety and quality are managed through the same system, reducing risk, preventing rework and ensuring consistent, reliable outcomes.
Risk is addressed early through detailed methodology and work sequencing, supporting safe and predictable delivery.
Our self-perform model provides greater control on site, ensuring consistent safety and quality standards.
Proven construction techniques and well-managed plant and equipment support safe, compliant and fit-for-purpose outcomes.
Performance is monitored through our Integrated Management System, with clear reporting and ongoing improvement.
Designed and introduced a mechanical pipe grab eliminating manual handling and line-of-fire-risks, significantly improving safety and earning two award nominations.
Implemented a new cloud-based WHSEQ data management system designed to strengthen safety and improve efficiency. The platform integrates critical processes including personnel management, training compliance, incident reporting, injury tracking and project monitoring in one place. Capturing information in real time enables faster responses, more transparent reporting and consistent safety standards across all operations.
Deployed 15 trained mental health first aiders across all project sites, including supervisors, managers and senior leaders who have completed accredited Mental Health First Aid training through an external Registered Training Organisation. Our trained team members provide confidential pathways for workers to raise concerns for themselves or colleagues, ensuring support is available wherever people work.
Local participation. Long-term outcomes.
Cape Dunstans supports the communities and regional areas in which we operate through local employment, procurement and active participation in initiatives that strengthen health, safety and community wellbeing.
We are committed to creating pathways into employment and building regional capability. Through the CFC Group’s Frank Cardaci Traineeship Program, we provide opportunities for disadvantaged and marginalised young people to enter the workforce and develop long-term careers.
Our partnership through KCU (link to KCU page), a 50/50 joint venture with Kurtarra Pty Ltd, is central to our approach to Indigenous engagement. Through KCU, we support increased Indigenous workforce participation, training and meaningful engagement with Traditional Owner groups, contributing to stronger local outcomes across the regions in which we operate.
This is complemented by our work with the CFC Foundation and other community partnerships, reflecting our focus on delivering long-term social value alongside project outcomes.
The KCU team opened a new office in Broome, supporting local recruitment, training and community connection, strengthening our presence in the Kimberley. We will appoint an Indigenous Manager to lead local engagement, build trusted relationships with community leaders and elders and implement an attract-select-retain plan supported by mentoring and pastoral care.
