Our performance is measured in accordance with Portfolio Budget Statement (PBS) 2019–20, our Corporate Plan (which is the National Strategic Plan) and our Operational Plan 2019–20.

How our Portfolio Budget Statement, Corporate Plan and Operational Plan interrelate

As stated above, the National Strategic Plan is our corporate plan. The portfolio budget statement links the performance criteria with the National Strategic Plan. The operational plan lists the activities we will undertake during the year in order to fulfil our function. There is a high degree of overlap between the measures in the portfolio budget statement and the operational plan. Operation plan activities for 2019–20 were either delivered or now form part of on-going work.

Our 2019–20 portfolio budget statement outlines our single outcome and program, and our performance criteria.

Our outcome: Assist the prevention of exposure to asbestos fibres and the elimination of asbestos-related disease in Australia through implementing the National Strategic Plan for Asbestos Awareness and Management in Australia.

Our program: We deliver outcomes by encouraging, coordinating, monitoring and reporting on the implementation of the National Strategic Plan. We also collaborate with the Commonwealth, state and territory and local government agencies about asbestos safety and commission and promote research about asbestos safety.
