Inclusion and Diversity
Working Together
You may have noticed we've put Inclusion before Diversity. This is because we believe it comes first. Without inclusion, diversity is not meaningful. Inclusion ensures that people with diverse backgrounds, perspectives, and experiences are not only welcomed but also valued, respected, and provided with equal opportunities to participate and contribute. Inclusion first, that's Good Different.
Our focus areas

LGBTQI+ inclusion

Moments that matter
At ALDI, we believe that understanding, respecting, and valuing the uniqueness of our employees and customers makes us stronger. Check out some of our team members who reflect on the moments of support that have mattered to them over their careers.

A career that supports everyone
We believe that all our people in ALDI today, and those joining us tomorrow, should have the space, support, and systems in place to enable them to reach their full potential free from bias and prejudice. We do not tolerate discrimination or harassment in any form against any person, whether it is based on sex, gender, marital status, pregnancy, race, religion, colour, national origin, disability, age, family status, sexual orientation or political conviction. We encourage people from all backgrounds, abilities, and identities to apply for roles at ALDI. If you need additional support throughout the recruitment process, let your recruiter know how they can best assist you!
Inclusion & Diversity is a global expectation
As a global retailer, we strive to represent and serve the needs of the communities we operate in and improve the world we live in. We see Inclusion & Diversity as a fundamental element of how we can successfully operate as a global organisation. With businesses in over 11 different countries, we understand the need to build a culture of inclusivity that values diversity in all its forms.

Acknowledgement of Country
ALDI Australia acknowledges and respects Australia's First Nations people as the Traditional Custodians of the Land upon which we operate our stores, distribution centres, regional offices and the national office.
We also offer our respect to Elders both past and present. We extend that respect to all First Nations peoples, especially our team members, customers and business partners.
This artwork called 'Tracking' was commissioned by ALDI and created by First Nations artist Amy Kilby, a proud Wiradjuri woman from the Riverina region in NSW.
