In June 2015 the Board of the Commission finalised decisions to restructure the Commission’s workforce. This
restructuring allowed the Commission to further align its workforce with strategic priorities while addressing the
need to maintain financial sustainability within existing funding levels until at least 2020. It continued the work
of the self-initiated review implemented last year to become a more effective and aligned organisation, ensure
financial sustainability and deliver better human rights outcomes.
Organisational change costs in both years relate to employee cessation payments and support services, and in
2014 also include the cost of consultants who provided advice and services related to the review.
An explanation of the variance from budget is included in note 20.
