Our Foundational Principles

Integrity and ethics, supported by the cornerstones of safety, inclusion and diversity, and workplace respect, underlie every aspect of our operations at Honeywell. These foundational principles are complemented by our workplace behaviors, which define our core values and company culture.

Honeywell Pacific

In Australia and New Zealand, Honeywell operates with a focus on creating smarter, safer, and more sustainable environments. We are involved in several key projects that align with national priorities, such as renewable energy, smart city technologies, and improved safety regulations. Honeywell Pacific plays a pivotal role in transforming industries through cutting-edge technologies and solutions that enhance operational efficiency and reduce environmental impact.

Honeywell is involved in a diverse range of innovative projects. These often include developing smart building technologies that enhance energy efficiency, implementing advanced safety equipment and systems for industries, and creating sophisticated software solutions for manufacturing and logistics. We are also actively engaged in renewable energy projects that contribute to local and global sustainability goals, such as wind and solar power integration.

Inclusion & Diversity

Inclusion and diversity are integral to Honeywell's corporate culture. We actively promote a workplace that encourages diversity of thought and embraces different perspectives. Honeywell's I&D efforts include focusing on empowering women through various initiatives, such as mentorship programs, robust training, leadership development programs, and networking opportunities.

Honeywell participates in partnerships with organisations aimed at bolstering women’s presence in STEM fields, thereby fostering a diverse talent pipeline. Our commitment to a diverse and inclusive workforce is not only a moral imperative but also a strategic advantage that enhances creativity and drives innovation.

Indigenous Participation Program

At Honeywell, we acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land on which we operate, and we pay our respects to their Elders past, present, and emerging. We recognise that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are the first Australians and the custodians of the oldest living culture in the world.

We are committed to fostering a workplace that not only respects and values Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cultures but actively supports the journey toward reconciliation. Our Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP) represents a vital step in our commitment to building meaningful and lasting relationships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.

Our RAP is more than just a document—it is a commitment to tangible actions that drive positive change. We are dedicated to creating an inclusive environment where Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples feel respected, heard, and empowered. This commitment includes promoting understanding and respect for cultural diversity, providing opportunities for employment and development, and ensuring that our business practices contribute to the broader goal of reconciliation. We understand that reconciliation is a journey and we are prepared to listen, learn, and grow as we move forward. Our RAP outlines specific, measurable actions that will guide us in this journey, ensuring that we are held accountable for our progress.

We invite all of our employees, partners, and stakeholders to join us in this important work. Together, we can make a difference and contribute to a more equitable and inclusive Australia.

Māori Cultural Framework

There are many things that define New Zealanders and connect them to their home and Te Reo Māori is one of them.

Māori culture is an integral part of life in Aotearoa, influencing everything from cuisine to customs, and language. Māori are the tangata whenua, the indigenous people of Aotearoa. Their history, language, and traditions are central to Aotearoa’s identity.

Honeywell New Zealand celebrates and acknowledges this through our Inclusion & Diversity focus.

We are committed to extending this to all our employees and engaging with Māori for the success and progression of all.
