Hi
 
A while ago we had a chat after the Appropriate Behaviours in the Workplace training session and you were talking 
about social media and the APS. The Australian Public Service Commission recently released further guidance on APS 
employees making public comment on social media. Additionally, the information supporting the Code of Conduct 
has been updated to reference the new guidance material.  I have also attached a link to our current personal use of 
social media policy. 
 
I thought I would send them to you as you might find it useful. 
 
Warm regards, 
Nicole Lisle

Hi
 
As discussed earlier, People Branch own the Personal Use of Social Media Policy available through the People 
Policies and Guidelines page. 
 
For information on using social media in an official capacity, I recommend you speak to the Programme 
Communication team. I believe what was previously a standalone policy was folded into the Department’s IT 
Security Policy, but you are best confirming that with the Communications team. 
 
Let me know if I can help you with anything else. 
 
Kind regards 
Lari
