Workforce information policies

The PSC manages the data collected through the workforce profile in accordance with the published Privacy Code of Practice for the Public Service Commission and the Health Privacy Code of Practice for the Public Service Commission. The codes are approved by the NSW Attorney General and NSW Minister for Health, respectively.

The workforce profile collection includes the Government Employee Number (GEN), a unique identifier provided to each NSW government sector employee. The GEN enables more advanced analytics while ensuring that the Workforce Information Warehouse does not contain personal information such as employee names. For more information about the GEN visit our privacy and GEN page.
