Publication scheme
This publication scheme specifies the categories of information that the Fair Work Agency regularly publishes and explains how to get that information.
The Freedom of Information (FOI) Act encourages public authorities to make information available to the public wherever possible. The Fair Work Agency (FWA) does this by publishing the data that people need to understand, who we are, what we spend and what we achieve.
Under the act, we are required to adopt a publication scheme that contains information we make available and ensure that all published information is in accordance with the scheme.
Available information is grouped under the following ‘classes of information’.
This will develop as FWA publishes more information.
