State of the Service Report 2024-25
Introduction
Section 44 of the Public Service Act 1999 states that the Australian Public Service Commissioner must give a report to the Agency Minister, for presentation to the Parliament, on the state of the APS during the past year.
The State of the Service Report is a collaboration between the Australian Public Service Commission and APS agencies. It shows how the APS supports the Australian Government, the Australian Parliament and the Australian people.
This year’s report explores:
- how the APS workforce and workplaces are evolving, supported by research and data insights
- capability, stewardship and leadership programs and practices in the APS
- integrity and conduct issues and initiatives in the APS
- ways of working with AI in the APS to enhance operations and deliver better services
- how APS professions support the people and work of the APS
- how APS teams are serving the Australian community, working with non-government, business and research partners.
This is the third State of the Service Report to be submitted to the Australian Parliament by APS Commissioner Dr Gordon de Brouwer, and is prepared as a digital-first report. It is the latest in a series of reports on the Australian Public Service dating back to Federation.
