The Public Service Commission commenced on 1 November 2011. 

The inaugural Public Service Commissioner is Mr Graeme Head.

The Public Service Commission Advisory Board, chaired by Professor Peter Shergold AC, provides the Public Service Commission with strategic, independent and expert advice concerning the management and performance of the public sector workforce.

On-line Performance & Management resources remain available on the Department of Premier & Cabinet website in their previous location. During the upcoming months, content relevant to the Public Service Commission will be progressively imported into this site.
