The 2016 Australian Public Service (APS) employee census was administered to all available APS employees. This census approach provides a comprehensive view of the APS and ensures no eligible respondents are omitted from the survey sample, removing sampling bias and reducing sample error. The census' content is designed to establish the views of APS employees on workplace issues such as leadership, learning and development and job satisfaction. The census ran from 9 May to 10 June 2016. Overall, 96,672 APS employees responded to the employee census, a response rate of 69%.
