The Program is further supported by other initiatives in the Service, for example ACT Corrective Services is collaborating with the Transport Canberra and City Services Directorate and the Environment, Planning and Sustainable Development Directorate to identify suitable opportunities to employ detainees or ex-detainees.

2. The ACTPS does not reserve such positions, however when employing, the merit principle is used, meaning the best person for the job will be made an offer following a selection process. The ACTPS does offer support to people when applying for positions, including for people with Disability, and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander employment, particularly in entry level programs. Support is available to employers through the Guidance on the Employment of People who are Ex-detainees, Parolees or Others with Serious or Extensive Criminal Histories.

3. The current HR system does not hold data about post-secondary requirements for positions in the ACTPS.
