Very good - lots of supportive networks and initiatives

There is a bit of difference between different areas of the department but overall I would rate this quite high. I see plenty of woman in senior roles as well as operational and other more traditionally male roles. I see a large amount of ethnic and LGBT diversity in my direct team as well but I have noticed less in some other teams. I think the policies and commitment are there but it is still taking time to implement.

There is plenty of talk about diversity in a general sense, but not specifically as it applies to my area of work. I cannot comment from personal experience as I do not belong to any of these groups. I will say that issues like child care and parental leave are well handled.

Recruitment of women has been a focus and has been increasing, but more work needs to be done in retention of women and representation in senior roles. Parental leave and job security are excellent, and the ability to work flexibly in terms of hours and location are really beneficial for caring duties.

Government does a number of these better than than private companies. There is a fair amount of cultural diversity within the department/branch. Maternity/parental leave is offered.
