Harmony Week 2022


Monday, 21 March 2022 until Sunday, 27 March 2022

Harmony Week celebrates Australia’s cultural diversity. It’s about inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for everyone. ​


​​Research indicates that organisations perform well when employees feel included and their workplace is strongly committed to supporting diversity.


With around 45 per cent of Australians born overseas or with at least one parent who was, Harmony Week has always been a popular way for workplaces to showcase and acknowledge their cultural diversity.


Grampians Health is no different, with current employees as diverse as the services we offer across the region. 


During Harmony Week 2022 we will be celebrating the diversity of our staff and community by wearing orange to work (a little or a lot!), to work during the week, and sharing a multicultural food where possible.



We will also profile staff in our newsletters and on our social media channels.
