Public Service Act

The Public Service Act 1999 is an Australian law that governs how the public service operates. It sets the framework for the recruitment, management, and conduct of public servants—those who work for the government. The Act aims to ensure that public services are delivered fairly, efficiently, and transparently. It emphasizes principles such as merit-based employment, accountability, and integrity within the public service. Essentially, it helps maintain a professional and impartial workforce that serves the public interest effectively.
