Background
FG has a big mission; to harness the power of super to build a future without climate change or inequality. To accomplish this huge goal, we need to have a workforce that is full of great people, and a workplace where these people can do their best work. Research consistently demonstrates that having a diverse and inclusive workplace leads to greater employee performance, wellbeing, engagement and retention. Similarly, having a workforce that has a diverse range of backgrounds and life experiences that is representative of society (and our members!) makes our work stronger, more innovative and relevant.

Financial Support - Loan
FG recognises that a significant barrier TGD people face when planning to undertake gender affirmation is the financial barrier to necessary health care, and that government-funded subsidies and support are currently limited and inadequate.
While we hope in the future that greater funding and support will be provided for this health care, to help address this until then, permanent TGD employees who are accessing gender affirming procedures, products and services can apply for a Future Group Employee Support Loan financial support to pay for out-of-pocket costs (it is assumed that the individual will claim any Medicare or private health fund rebates to which they are entitled).
Further information can be found in the Employee Financial Support Loan Guidelines.
