The Australian Public Service (APS) Employee Census is an annual survey that gathers information on:
- employee engagement and job satisfaction
- leadership and supervisors
- inclusion and wellbeing
- communication and change
- workplace culture
- ways of working
- general impressions of the APS.
The census results help us to understand what we are doing well, to identify areas for further improvement, and to track our progress on key organisational strategies and initiatives.
All agencies are required to develop and publish an action plan in response to their employee census results. Our census action plan aims to build upon our successes and continue to improve our workplace experiences. It has been developed in consultation with employees and the executive.
