Description

The Public Service Medal is a prestigious Australian award that recognizes exceptional service and contributions by employees of the Australian Public Service, state, territory, and local governments. Established on 18 October 1989, this medal honors individuals who have made remarkable achievements in public service, policy development, leadership, and efficiency, leading to improved service delivery.

Eligibility for the Public Service Medal requires the following:

  • Demonstrated outstanding service to the public, whether external or internal clients.
  • Innovation in program, project, or policy development.
  • Leadership qualities, including contributions made as a member of a team.
  • Achievement of more efficient processes, improved productivity, or enhanced service delivery.

Australian Defence Force military members are not eligible for this award. However, Australian Public Service employees of the Department of Defence can be nominated for the Public Service Medal, with the Directorate of Honours and Awards available to assist with the nomination process.

The 38-millimeter-diameter medal features a nickel-silver design with the Federation Star. The obverse side displays four planetary gears around a central sun gear, along with the inscription 'PUBLIC SERVICE' surrounded by 36 human figures. The reverse side shows a mimosa wreath with the words 'FOR OUTSTANDING SERVICE'.

The accompanying ribbon, 32 millimeters wide, has alternating green and gold stripes. The broadest stripes are positioned on the left and right sides of the ribbon, reflecting the national colors of Australia.
