Working with Telstra

Telstra became one of the first signatories to the Business Council of Australia’s new supplier payment code which was launched May 2017. The Australian Supplier Payment Code is a voluntary, industry-led initiative to enshrine the importance of prompt and on-time payment for small business.

Telstra spends around $655 million in FY20 with Australian small business suppliers. We understand the importance of cash flow for small businesses and as a result have implemented 20-day payment terms providing a positive financial impact for approximately 5690 small business suppliers who work directly with us each year.

We look to make a positive impact with the communities in which we serve, our commitment to drive economic empowerment and a connected Australia extends to the use of First Nations business and the employment of First Nations Australians in our day to day business. We look to enable a sustained and embedded approach to increasing the depth and breadth of this engagement and have lifted our target to achieve $15million spend with First Nations suppliers per year.
