About the strategy
The Australian Government Department of the Environment and Water Resources develops and implements national policy, programs and legislation to protect and conserve Australia's natural environment and cultural heritage. In achieving this, the department recognises the valuable and significant contribution that can be made by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders through their connection with and responsibility for land and water. The Indigenous Employment and Capability Strategy expresses the department's commitment to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employees throughout the organisation and to the recruitment, capability development and career advancement of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
The employment of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people within the organisation and the building of relationships with the broader Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community reinforce the department's commitment to diversity and reconciliation in the workplace. The department is committed to the continuing development, career management and retention of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employees and to providing opportunities for career advancement in ways to maximise successful outcomes.
The department recognises that from time to time Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employees will need to balance their professional public service responsibilities with their family and community responsibilities and that this can sometimes be difficult to do. The department is committed to supporting its employees in meeting these challenges.
