Annual Report 1999 - 2000
Workplace diversity and equal employment opportunity
The Commission's Workplace Diversity Plan was finalised in September 1999. The Commission recognises that diversity in its staff is one of its greatest strengths and assets and is committed to ensuring that its Workplace Diversity Plan achieves its objectives and is congruent with the external approach promoted by the Commission. All staff were provided with the opportunity to contribute to the Plan. The Plan's objectives are defined under three broad areas, covering the organisation, the working environment and the people. Particular strategies, including a focus on indigenous people, people with family responsibilities and people with disabilities have been outlined in the Plan. The Commission continues to support family friendly practices in the workplace through its recent Certified Agreement 2000-2001.
