Diversity & Inclusion

At Nine, we are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workforce that reflects and responds to the diversity of our audiences. 

We know from experience that the best ideas are born when we bring together the most creative minds and create an environment for them to thrive. By supporting our people to express their authentic selves, we create better content, tell more original stories, and contribute to a stronger media landscape for Australia.

Nine's Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Strategy

Our DEI strategy for 2026-2030 to build a safe, respectful and inclusive workplace.

‘We bring people together through storytelling – it’s the heart of who we are and why we exist. Diversity is fundamental to this.  Whether it be attracting diverse talent, showcasing diverse content or ensuring we mirror the audiences that watch, read and listen to our programs.

Equally, we recognise that our long-term success depends on building a culture where people feel respected and can thrive. Inclusion is shaping our group foundations so that we are the place where Australia Belongs.’ 

Matt Stanton - CEO, Nine Entertainment Co

Nine's Communities

At Nine we are a vibrant and diverse group of people, and it is through the celebration of different backgrounds and experiences that our employee resource groups Nine Communities were born.

These Communities connect our employees with lived experience, allies and those who share similar interests; foster an inclusive culture that reflects our values and purpose.

Celebrating Pride at Nine

We're building a safe, respectful, and inclusive workplace where everyone is encouraged to bring their whole, authentic self to work. 

We envision a future where LGBTQ+ voices and perspectives are integrated throughout our business, ensuring that Nine reflects Australia's rich diversity and actively celebrates it in all that we do.

Pride is more than a moment; it’s about taking action to ensure everyone feels safe, respected, and empowered to bring their true, authentic selves to work. 

Nine officially achieved Bronze certification in the Australian Workplace Equality Index (AWEI). The AWEI is Australia’s definitive national benchmark for LGBTQ+ workplace inclusion, and earning Bronze reflects our tangible progress toward fostering that environment.

Nine’s partnership with Inclusively Made

Inclusive certification of the Paris and Milano Cortina Paralympic Games broadcasts

As one of Inclusively Made’s founding partners, we’re so proud that this recognition highlights Nine’s commitment to inclusivity, diversity, and accessibility at every level of production. From behind-the-scenes crews to on-air talent, people with disabilities played key roles in bringing the Paralympics to audiences across Australia. To further this embedded knowledge across our projects, our broadcast team at Wide World of Sports recently undertook inclusive production training, led by Inclusively Made.
