Our Inclusion Strategy 2025–29 will build on our achievements so far and continue creating a workplace where people feel safe, valuable and able to thrive.

The strategy explains how we’ll keep investing in what makes our department an inclusive and supportive place to work and sets clear goals for the future.

Over the next 4 years, our focus will be on 5 key priorities:

  • capability uplift
  • clear accountability
  • employee support and recognition
  • recruitment, retention and representation
  • systems and processes.

These priorities will guide our biennial action plans, helping us deliver targeted actions and stay responsive to changes within our department and the broader Australian community.
