Introduction The ARC aims to be a small APS agency leader in promoting diversity and inclusion (D&I). The ARC will provide guidance to all employees and engage with stakeholders to inspire sustainable and transformative change to achieve a diverse workforce reflective of Australian society. To gain the full benefits of a diverse workforce, the ARC requires a culture that is inclusive, where all employees feel respected and valued. We must challenge our ways of thinking and ways of working, to ensure D&I is a natural part of what we do – embedded in our culture, in our recruitment, and in forward-thinking practices. The ARC’s values of Genuine. Empowering. Fair. Kind. Trusting. are integral to how we conduct ourselves and our business. The ARC acknowledges these are the foundations to building an inclusive and diverse culture and are everyone’s responsibility in the agency. As part of the ARC’s commitment to D&I, we are proud members of the Diversity Council Australia.
