Inclusivity, Sustainability, and Ethical Responsibility Policy

At Fixinc, we believe that diversity, equity, environmental responsibility, and ethical business practices are the cornerstones of a resilient and sustainable future. Our commitment extends beyond compliance—it is embedded in every aspect of our operations, partnerships, and services.‍

Respect for Indigenous Communities

We acknowledge and honour the rightful Indigenous Peoples of the lands on which we operate. This includes:

• Aotearoa New Zealand: Recognizing the mana whenua (authority) of Māori iwi and hapū across the country, respecting their rights, culture, and heritage.
• Australia: Paying respect to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, with particular acknowledgment of the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation, the traditional custodians of the land on which Sydney stands.
• Malaysia: Acknowledging the Indigenous communities of Malaysia, including the Orang Asli of Peninsular Malaysia, the Orang Ulu of Sarawak, and the Kadazan-Dusun of Sabah.

We aim to promote reconciliation and empower Indigenous communities through our partnerships, business decisions, and support for local initiatives.

‍Commitment to Diversity and Non-Discrimination

Fixinc ensures an inclusive and equitable workplace by actively preventing discrimination on the basis of:

• Race, ethnicity, or nationality
• Gender identity or gender expression
• Sexual orientation
• Religion or spiritual beliefs

We champion diversity and support equal opportunities for all, fostering a workplace where everyone feels valued, heard, and respected.

Freedom of Expression and Zero Tolerance for Hate Speech

We uphold the right to free speech while maintaining a zero-tolerance policy toward hate speech, harassment, or discrimination. We encourage open and constructive dialogue in an environment that promotes respect, understanding, and inclusivity.

• Paper-free operations: We encourage a digital-first approach to minimize unnecessary paper use and promote sustainable workflows.
• Remote-first client interactions: We prioritize virtual meetings and remote collaboration to reduce our carbon footprint, limiting travel to situations where it is absolutely necessary.

• Sustainable procurement: We prioritize working with suppliers and partners who demonstrate a clear commitment to sustainable and ethical practices.
• Energy efficiency: We ensure that all our digital infrastructure, including data storage and communications, operates with energy-efficient technologies wherever possible.

Accessibility and Fairness
