The Australian Public Service (APS) Employee Census is an annual confidential survey of APS employees that collects their views on the APS, their agency and their workplace on issues such as employee engagement, wellbeing and performance; leadership; communication; and innovation. The census helps Australian Government agencies, as well as the Australian Public Service Commission, to identify areas that need improving.
OAIC employees have taken part in the census since it commenced in 2012.
We value our employees’ feedback as we continue to build our capabilities in areas such as learning and development, internal communication, and health and wellbeing.

OAIC Census Action Plan 2024
In 2024, OAIC has moved to a new organisational structure and implemented Guiding Principles that will support it to regulate in a risk-based and strategic manner. OAIC’s Census results in 2024 reflect disruptions caused by the significant changes occurring within the agency and provide a baseline for future results and to measure the success of the changes it is making. In the first year working in its new structure, OAIC will focus on enhancing communications and change, leadership, and improving access to tools and resources. It will also focus on bringing together the office and building a positive agency culture to improve employee engagement.
