The Treasury has worked with Treasury representatives from all jurisdictions to prepare a technical paper: Workforce Gender Segregation in Australia. The paper provides an overview of gender segregation in Australian workforces, identifies underlying drivers of gender segregation and summarises key actions underway across jurisdictions aimed at supporting improved gender equality across Australian workforces.
This technical paper has been prepared by the interjurisdictional Women's Economic Outcomes Senior Officials Working Group (WEO-SOWG) of the Council on Federal Financial Relations to assist in informing policy efforts to address gender segregation in Australian workforces. The WEO-SOWG includes Treasury representatives from the Commonwealth and all state and territory governments.
