Our Commitment to Diversity and Inclusion

Court Services Victoria (CSV) strives to attract, select, and onboard a diverse workforce that is representative of the community it serves.
We are committed to providing a workplace where all people can be included and succeed.
Our recruitment process is transparent, inclusive, and accessible and our decision-making process mitigates bias.
We treat all our candidates equitably, with care, respect, and fairness.

Employees participating in selection decisions and processes will:
• ensure they do not unlawfully discriminate in a selection based on any protected characteristic as outlined in the Equal Opportunity Act 2010 and CSV policy.
• identify and address any bias they may possess.

CSV will implement strategies to increase the diversity of our workplace through selection and recruitment practices, including:
• implementing the actions in our Koori Employment Plan to increase employment pathways for First Peoples
• fulfilling the commitments made in our Gender Equality Action Plan
• encouraging and facilitating inclusive participation for candidates who may have faced structural disadvantage including women, the LGBTQIA+ community, people with disabilities, culturally and/or racially marginalised people, people from lower socio-economic backgrounds, people with carer responsibilities, and those who are neurodiverse.

In line with obligations under the Equal Opportunity Act 2010, CSV may limit positions or target recruitment at specific cohorts or groups.
