Employment Principles: Standards and Guidelines for Application

The standards for applying employment principles, issued by the Victorian Public Sector Commission, cover fair and reasonable treatment, merit in employment, equal employment opportunity, human rights, reasonable avenue of redress, and career public service. These standards define essential practices related to recruitment, development, and career management within public sector organizations. They emphasize fairness, consistency, merit-based selection, respect for human rights, equal opportunities, and mechanisms for resolving issues. Employers are encouraged to adhere to these standards to ensure a transparent and ethical employment process.
