The National Framework for Public Sector Mobility has been developed to facilitate successful rapid surge mobility across jurisdictions. It will enable our public sectors to continue to respond to the unprecedented challenges COVID-19 has presented, and the continued delivery of critical services to Australians, when they need them most.

The Framework was endorsed by the Commonwealth, State and Territory Public Sector Commissioners on 30 July 2020. This will be supported by a suite of material for effective implementation between jurisdictions.
