Equal Employment Opportunity

Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO) is about:

• making sure that workplaces are free from all forms of unlawful discrimination and harassment, and
• providing programs that assist members of EEO groups in employment.

All NSW Government departments, agencies and their employees have a responsibility to implement and uphold Equal Employment Opportunity (EEO).

EEO groups are people affected by past or continuing disadvantage or discrimination in employment. These groups are:

• women
• Aboriginal people and Torres Strait Islanders
• members of racial, ethnic, and ethno-religious minority groups
• people with a disability

Please visit the Equal Employment Opportunity website for more detailed information about EEO groups and programs in the NSW public sector.
