GETTING TO KNOW THE AUSTRALIAN ELECTORAL COMMISSION

The Australian Electoral Commission (AEC) is at the heart of Australian
democracy. The AEC is responsible for conducting federal elections and
referendums, maintaining the Commonwealth electoral roll and making sure the
Australian public is informed about all electoral matters. Our goal is to see
that all eligible Australians actively participate in our democracy. The AEC
values of electoral integrity through quality, agility and professionalism drive
strategic and corporate planning and assist in organising the agency in a way
that will effectively deliver the business into the future. The AEC is an equal
opportunity employer which upholds the APS employment principles and actively
encourages a diverse and inclusive workplace. The AEC’s statutory functions in
relation to the conduct of elections and referendums require that the AEC and
its employees must be, and must be seen to be, impartial and politically
neutral. As a result, the AEC Enterprise Agreement and Political Neutrality
Policy state that it is an inherent requirement of AEC employment that
employees, and prospective employees, are not publicly active in any political
affairs and do not publicly engage in such activities. This includes advocating
any issues associated with a referendum. Should a prospective employee fail to
meet this inherent requirement, they will be ineligible for employment with the
AEC.
