What are EEO employment targets?
The Office of the Public Service Commissioner has established Queensland public sector targets for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, people from a non-English speaking background and women in management to encourage Queensland Government agencies to build a representative public sector workforce that reflects the community it serves. No targets have been set for people with a disability as the complexity of identifying the number of people with a disability who are able to work, coupled with the range of varying extents of disability types make it difficult to set one target based on representation in the community. The web page on workforce profile outlines the department’s progress towards achieving EEO employment targets.
