Fair Work Commission

The Fair Work Commission acknowledges Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples as the first Australians. The Commission acknowledges the impact of non-indigenous settlement to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture and recognise the social, economic and educational challenges faced by Indigenous Australians today.

As the national workplace relations tribunal, the Commission acknowledges that our business is conducted on the traditional land of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. We acknowledge their continuing connection to Country and pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.

The Commission, in partnership with local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, is committed to:

• ensuring Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people benefit from our work
• raising employee awareness of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture
• increasing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employment within the Commission
• ensuring a culturally supportive and safe environment for all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who access our services
• celebrating the achievements and contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people
• creating culturally supportive environment for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employees
• developing a Reconciliation Action Plan
