A Police Force that reflects the community
As an inclusive organisation we welcome and encourage the Diverse Sexuality and Genders (DSG) community, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders, and people of varying genders, cultures and nationalities to apply.
The WA Police Force strive to build a safe and inclusive workplace, and support, recognise and celebrate a variety of Indigenous, Pride and cultural events across the force and within the community.
Women are an integral part of policing participating at all ranks from Constable to executive. We value individuals and encourage applicants of all genders to consider policing as a career.
We celebrate what makes you, you!
