  13. Public Administration and Safety Services : Drivers of Workforce Development

    1. Decreasing public sector employment In 2011, the Victorian Government announced the Victorian Public Service would be reduced by 4,200 positions. Employment in the Australian Government reduced by nearly 3,000 people in the five years to 2012 and the projected growth is small at .6% per annum (1) 2. Ageing Workforce All segments within this industry have median ages above the median for all industries. (2) 3. Population Growth Population growth will drive demand for staff in service delivery roles in the public sector, such as police, courts, correctional services, child protection and emergency services.

  14. Public Admin and Safety Services – Drivers of Workforce Change

    4. Flexible Work arrangements Public sectors organisations will be under increasing pressure to offer staff flexible working arrangements. These arrangements will be needed to cater for staff with children as well as older workers looking to transition to retirement and older worker with care responsibilities (i.e. Elderly parents or grandchildren) (2) 5. Climate Change and Environmental issues Climate and environmental considerations will continue to have an impact on public service and public sectors roles. Changes to roles will be driven by: The introduction of changed work practices that consider the environmental impact of various work activities; and The introduction of new technologies aimed at reducing any impacts on the environment.

  15. CorrectionsOverview

  16. Public Administration and Safety Services – Corrections

  17. VictorianOverview

  18. Public Administration and Safety Services : Victorian Public Sector

    State Governments employ the greatest proportion of people working in Public Administration and Safety Services. (1) At 30 June 2011 the Victorian public sector (VPS and public sector) employed 264,223 people. The Victorian Public Service (VPS) comprises 11 government departments and 24 authorities and offices. At 30 June 2011, there were 40,100 Victorian public servants, 60% are female, 42.8 was their average age and 22% work part time. The Victorian Public Service grew by more than 12,000 staff between 2000 and 2102. In 2012 the Victorian Government announced the Victorian Public Sector would be reduced by 4,200 jobs. In recent years the strongest growth occurred in departments delivering services, such as Human Services, Health, Education and Early Childhood, Justice, Sustainability and Environment, Primary Industries, and Transport. The three largest departments are: Department of Human Services (11,805 headcount), Department of Justice (7,563, headcount). Department of Education and Early Childhood Development (3,314, headcount, excluding school staff) Source: DEEWR, Employment Outlook for Public Administration and safety, 2011,SSA, (2012) State of the Sector Report
  19. Public administration and Safety Services – Victorian Public Sector

    In 2010-2011 annual growth slowed to less than 1%. This compares to an average annual compound growth of 5.3% between 2006 and 2010. 38% of Victorian public sector employees work in specialised roles covered by occupation-specific classifications. The largest increase in occupational/specialist roles has been among child protection workers. In 2011 there were nearly 1,700 in Victoria, an increase of nearly 25% since 2006. Since 2006 and the re-development of the classification structure, the proportion of staff at Grades 1, 2 and 3 has been decreasing and the proportion of staff at the 4, 5, and 6 levels has been increasing. This is consistent with the increasing professionalisation of the public sector workforce over time. Note: The Australian Public Service Commission (APSC) has reported the same change in profile. APSC attributes the upward shift in classifications structures to the increasing complexity and difficulty of public sector roles. The outsourcing of low-skilled functions over time has also contributed to changing the classifications profile.

  42. What this means?

    Employment levels in ‘Public Administration and Safety’ have been growing for more than a decade, but are projected to slow to 0.8% per annum over the next five years, less than the 1.4% average for all industries. The highest projected employment growth is in the ‘Justice’ segment, followed by Public ‘Order and Safety’. ‘Justice’ is the only segment that has projected growth above the average for all industries. In Australia, Police, General Clerks, and Security Officers and Guards are the three largest occupations in the Public Administration and Safety Services Industry. State Governments employ the largest number of public sector staff and in 2011/2012 the Victorian Government announced the Victorian Public Service would be reduced by 4,200 positions. Job losses are expected to be focused on administration roles rather than service delivery. In the Hume Region more staff work in service delivery roles than administration roles. After increasing by 11% between 2006 and 2011, employment in Public Administration and Safety in Hume is expected to show a small decrease in the next five years. Employment in ‘Public Sector Social and Community Worker’ roles is projected to be stable.

    The data challenges included: Different definitions of industries / occupations between ABS, Industry Skills Councils and Monash. Different Time periods used by different sources Old Data - ABS Census is now 6 years old. 2011 ABS Census data has been used where available. Lack of HUME region industry data particularly for industries where employers are predominantly private sector (e.g. Retail, manufacturing and Transport and Logistics) Lack of regional Skills Shortage Data – DEEWR lists are at the State level Changes in name and level of VET qualifications (training packages) Poor sourcing of data – The data source and date were unclear for some data sources.
