Health Support Services (HSS) is the Western Australian Government agency providing shared services to the state’s public health system. We provide a suite of financial, ICT, procurement and supply, and workforce services to more than 65,000 employees across WA’s public health services and hospitals. Our focus is on providing simple, reliable, responsive and sustainable services to our customers. Every day, our people provide solutions, develop innovative technologies, and introduce new and easier ways of working for our customers so they can focus on providing excellent health care. Our vision is to provide great services to our customers, be known as a valued partner, and support the health of all Western Australians. To achieve this, we’re guided by five values underpinning everything we do at HSS: • We put our customers at the heart of what we do • We value and care for each other • We will find a way • We promise, we own, we do • We make a difference together Our commitment to diversity At HSS, we embrace diversity and believe that our best services come from a workplace where varied perspectives and experiences are welcomed and encouraged. We are committed to creating an equitable and diverse workforce and encourage applications from people with disability, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, people from culturally diverse backgrounds, members of our LGBTQIA+ community, women and youth. Some organisations talk the talk when it comes to diversity and inclusion, but at HSS, we truly walk the walk. • 25% of our people are from Culturally and Linguistically Diverse backgrounds* • 44% of our senior leadership team are women* *Statistics from 2020-21 HSS workforce data But there’s still more to do. Over the coming years, we’ll continue to create a diverse workplace where everyone feels valued, included, safe, and comfortable to bring their authentic selves to work.
