Thomas Building’s supervisors had extensive experience
when working with Rapley Wilkinson (formerly owned
by Thomas Building Manager Director Alan Thomas) in
Kununurra on 30 houses for the State Government.
The Federal Government provided an incentive for
employment of Aboriginal apprentices.
Kimberley Group Training (KGT) was the sponsored
apprenticeship assistance/liaison agency who managed
the process. KGT chose the candidates it considered
suitable for each position made available by the
subcontractor.
The apprentices could choose any trade - standard or
otherwise. Each week, KGT would liaise on site with
the Aboriginal apprentices and subcontractors, to
ensure that any issues were resolved, confirmed that
they were at work and that they were being paid.
The sub-contractors working on site treated the
Aboriginal apprentices no differently from other
apprentices they had ever worked with. The
sub-contractors placed nine apprentices in vari-
ous trades - concrete, carpentry, roof and wall clad,
Gyprock, painting, and electrical.
At least five of these placements continued past the first
year with the sub-contractor. With nine Aboriginal
apprentices on site, all sub-contractors took it on board
to ensure everyone worked well together.
The Aboriginal groups held different cultural
classes which were offered to all sub-contractors and
supervisors, so that everyone could understand and
respect the cultural differences.
Overall, it was a great success for all involved.

  • 9. ABORIGINAL JV COMPANY & ENGAGEMENT thomasbuilding.com.au - 16 - thomasbuilding.com.au - 17 - Thomas Building’s supervisors had extensive experience when working with Rapley Wilkinson (formerly owned by Thomas Building Manager Director Alan Thomas) in Kununurra on 30 houses for the State Government. The Federal Government provided an incentive for employment of Aboriginal apprentices. Kimberley Group Training (KGT) was the sponsored apprenticeship assistance/liaison agency who managed the process. KGT chose the candidates it considered suitable for each position made available by the subcontractor. The apprentices could choose any trade - standard or otherwise. Each week, KGT would liaise on site with the Aboriginal apprentices and subcontractors, to ensure that any issues were resolved, confirmed that they were at work and that they were being paid. The sub-contractors working on site treated the Aboriginal apprentices no differently from other apprentices they had ever worked with. The sub-contractors placed nine apprentices in vari- ous trades - concrete, carpentry, roof and wall clad, Gyprock, painting, and electrical. At least five of these placements continued past the first year with the sub-contractor. With nine Aboriginal apprentices on site, all sub-contractors took it on board to ensure everyone worked well together. The Aboriginal groups held different cultural classes which were offered to all sub-contractors and supervisors, so that everyone could understand and respect the cultural differences. Overall, it was a great success for all involved. Case Study Kununurra State Government Housing THOMAS MURUJUGA JV PTY LTD Thomas Building and Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation have formed a joint venture to undertake projects in the Karratha Region. This joint venture company is owned 51 per cent by Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation and 49 per cent by Thomas Building. The day-to-day management of the JV is undertaken by Thomas Building. The objectives of the Thomas Murujuga JV are as follows: • Generate revenue streams for the respective shareholders. • Commit to Aboriginal employment, cultural education and training initiatives, such as the employment of Aboriginal apprentices, resulting in real jobs for young Aboriginals with ongoing employment opportunities. • Satisfaction of putting something back into the community. • Qualify for and attract semi-governments co-investments and building projects. Aboriginal Employment Initiatives Thomas Building has had extensive experience in working with Aboriginal apprentices and commits to working with local training organisations to ensure a successful Aboriginal employment program is achieved. The directors and senior management team have extensive experience working in Aboriginal communities, including Mowanjum and Bidga Danga, as well as Murujuga Aboriginal Corporation in Karratha and a major Government Housing project in Kununurra.
