(a) All staff except as per (b) below
(b) Staff engaged as casual or fixed term of employment of six months or less, and staff unavailable for assessment due to long term leave, or workers compensation.
(c) The tables below show the data for both 2017/18 and 2018/19 for employees employed by the DoJ Corrective Services.
Acacia Prison and Melaleuca Remand and Reintegration Facility are privately run prisons and the staff are not employees of the DoJ; therefore we are unable to provide data.
