Scope |
The APS Employment Database (APSED) stores the employment data of all current and former APS employees. APSED is maintained by the Australian Public Service Commission and the data is supplied to APSED from the HR systems of APS agencies. |
Definition of disability |
A person has a disability if they report that they have a limitation, restriction or impairment, which has lasted, or is likely to last, for at least 6 months and restricts everyday activities. Disability status is voluntarily self-reported. |
Age groups |
Calculated based on date of birth of provided by employee. |
Gender/sex |
Gender is voluntarily self-reported as ‘Male’, ‘Female’ or ‘Indeterminate/Intersex/Unspecified’. |
Indigenous status |
Indigenous status is based on individuals self-identifying as an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander person. The term ‘First Nations employees’ is used to refer to the APS employees who have identified as an Australian Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander person. |
Definition of CALD |
While there is no single metric for culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) status used by APSC, a proxy measure (non-English speaking country of birth) has been used for reporting purposes in this instance. Country of birth is based on the ABS Standard Australian Classification of Countries (2016). |
Geographic information |
Remoteness has been calculated using the ABS 2016 Remoteness Areas Structure within the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS), which is based on the Accessibility and Remoteness Index of Australia. |
State/Territory |
National, state and territory data are available. |
