This FOI release from the Fair Work Ombudsman (FWO) comprises APS Employee Census extracts (2017 to 2024) showing that about 1% of respondents identified as Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander, alongside internal People Metrics attachments, recruitment reports and workforce snapshots. Reported First Nations headcount rose from 0.7% (December 2020) to 1.6% (December 2024), with 1,012 staff in December 2024 (APS benchmark 3.4%). Recruitment reports cover 2022-23, 2023-24 and 2024 calendar year. The release also includes a 2024 position description for a six-month Indigenous Liaison Officer pilot (APS 5/6, closing 26 August 2024), framed as an affirmative measure. Most individual figures and some headings are redacted under s.22 (irrelevant information), and personal details are withheld under s.47F. The release is partial.
