Social Responsibility

SAVING AND IMPROVING HUMAN LIVES

First responders, whether fire, ambulance, police, or rescue services, play a critical role in emergency situations to the extent that the individuals involved often find themselves in conditions where their lives or the lives of others are at risk. The Martin Aircraft Company is committed to providing first responders with the equipment they need to attend hard-to-get-to emergency sites safely and reliably. Using the Martin Jetpack scenes can be surveyed, risk factors calculated, supplies delivered, medical assistance offered and rescues carried out. Outside of emergency situations, we constantly engage with these services to ensure that our Jetpack will continue to meet their ongoing and future needs.

COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT

The Martin Aircraft Company has enjoyed strong support from the community over the years and firmly believes in giving back through sharing our time, knowledge and resources. We support technical innovation and learning, and whenever we can we host students and enthusiasts at our facilities and offer talks and demonstrations. Many of our employees also take time to give talks to universities, schools and clubs to encourage education and interest in science, technology and engineering.

As a pre-revenue company, Martin Aircraft Company is currently limited as to what sponsorship or financial support it can offer but we encourage our employees to participate in charitable events and we support charities directly through offering a Jetpack Experience for auctioning.

WELLBEING AND THE WORKPLACE ENVIRONMENT

Martin Aircraft Company is committed to ensuring the wellbeing and security of all our employees and firmly believes in our workforce maintaining an excellent work-life balance. We believe that families are the most important aspect of people’s lives and we actively encourage our employees to make decisions based around family commitments.

Martin Aircraft Company has strict health and safety policies in place to ensure that our people are safe at all times while in the workplace or travelling abroad. We support a “no blame” culture that encourages individuals to report failures in systems and to share these with the entire company in order to raise awareness and facilitate learning.

As a global company, Martin Aircraft Company values diversity of culture, background and beliefs and recognises the important contribution individuals can make by bringing differing perspectives and viewpoints to any topic.
