Recruitment

Across the Transport cluster we are committed to celebrating Aboriginal culture and creating an inclusive and proud environment. Increasing the representation of Aboriginal leaders and staff means that we can better reflect our diverse customers and the communities which we serve. This will help us develop a culture that is more customer-focused, innovative and attractive to talent and diverse staff.

Some job application processes may disadvantage certain people. Managers should identify barriers and adjust the way recruitment is done to remove these to assist candidates. Ways that managers can target their recruitment include:

  • targeting a role by advertising that the role is only open to people from a particular group
  • reserving one or more roles for applications from a target group, particularly where more than one role is advertised
  • sourcing candidates from specialised providers.

For more information, support or guidance on Aboriginal employment, refer to Recruiting for diversity - A manager's guide padlock and/or your agency's specific Aboriginal employment or engagement units.


The Aboriginal Engagement team is responsible for developing and implementing employment and retention strategies specifically targeted for Aboriginal people.
