LGBTQ+ at Services Australia
We support people of all sexual orientations, intersex statuses, and gender expressions and identities.
We’re a gold tier employer in the Australian Workplace Equality Index. We’re one of the only Australian Government agencies to hold this status.
We’ve achieved this through:
- inclusive HR policies
- access to paid and unpaid leave for transgender and gender-diverse staff to affirm their gender
- LGBTQIA+ inclusive staff resources
- our LGBTQIA+ staff network, the Rainbow Connection
- celebrating LGBTQIA+ days of significance, including International Day Against LGBTQIA+ discrimination (IDAHOBIT) and Wear It Purple Day
- our senior executive LGBTI+ allies
- active membership with Pride in Diversity and more.
