Welcome to the Office of the Public Sector Standards Commissioner
OPSSC and the Office of Equal Employment Opportunity (OEEO) collaborate with public sector agencies to enhance the reputation of the Western Australian public sector, and build strength and diversity through elements of the:
• Public Sector Management Act 1994;
• Public Interest Disclosure Act 2003; and
• Equal Opportunity Act 1984.
In particular, OPSSC and OEEO:
• lead and establish standards and codes through the relevant legislation;
• assist agencies to comply with those standards and codes, through policy and practice; and
• monitor and report compliant and non compliant agency conduct.
OPSSC also recommends to the Minister for Public Sector Management people suitable for appointment as public sector chief executive officers.
This work is a quality assurance to the Western Australian community, the Parliament of Western Australia and the Minister for Public Sector Management that the public sector operates within a clearly defined set of principles and standards that apply to every employee in the sector.
