Diversity and Inclusion

Indigenous Careers

‘Solid Start’ is about giving Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people the best foundation to start their career paths. We are committed to providing employment opportunities that will have long lasting benefits, not only socially and economically for the individual, but their family and communities.

Indigenous Employment

Our Solid Start Program was developed to provide clients and candidates with the specialist support they require to help you unleash the diversity potential in your organisation.

What is Solid Start?

We use our Solid Start Program to support Indigenous careers. We do this by minimising bias and maximising diversity of talent and knowledge during recruitment. We then provide critical support to Indigenous and Torres Strait Islander employees during the onboarding period.


We provide mentorship, coaching and your nominated placing consultant will provide full case management wrap around services. We can also work with you to increase employee engagement and reduce turnover by recognising potential cultural differences and biases.

How Solid Start works

  • We work directly with Indigenous communities, organisations, and businesses
  • We have the capacity to co-design with state and federal government agencies (e.g. NIAA)
  • We develop Indigenous employment plans with a long-term vision
  • We modify our recruitment and selection strategies to the Indigenous market
  • We tailor assessment programs to ensure BestFit™ candidates and reduce bias
  • We educate, mediate, and mentor clients on cultural corporate protocols
  • We identify candidates and clients specific needs and customise our support.

Our Reconciliation Action Plan Journey

The endorsement of our Reconciliation Action Plan is an exciting step for RGF Staffing. It provides us with a clear direction for our business to make active contributions towards Reconciliation. The development of the plan also involved commitments from our leaders and contributions from every level and department of our business. Our aim is to enhance opportunities, build relationships, and work towards a more equal and honest future.
