Affirmative measures
The APS Commissioner's Directions 2022 allows APS agencies to identify certain processes or vacancies as open only to either Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people or people with disability. The key purpose of affirmative measures is to ensure that there are equal employment opportunities for people from diverse backgrounds and to address inequitable employment outcomes. Affirmative measures policies and processes also help to create a more diverse workplace.
