The department is committed to ensuring the safety and wellbeing of children by creating and maintaining practices that are safe for children.

The department is working to promote a culture where children and young people who may have contact with, or be affected by, the work of the department, are safe, protected and respected.

As part of its commitment to child safety, the department publishes an annual statement of our compliance with the Commonwealth Child Safe Framework, outlining the risk profile of our work and our progress in implementing continuous improvement initiatives to our child safety practices.
