Following amendments to the Government Sector Employment Act (2013), the Public Service Commission was merged with the Premier's Department from 1 July 2024. This website is now managed and maintained by the Premier's Department.
Our award categories are designed to recognise excellence in the delivery of public services to the NSW community. There are six team categories which reflect the priorities of the NSW Government, and two individual categories.
Individuals can be nominated for the Anthea Kerr Award which recognises future public sector leaders under 35 years of age, and for the NSW Public Servant of the Year for exemplary work and outstanding leadership from an individual working for the NSW Government.
