Inland Revenue Te Tari Taake is committed to building an inclusive workplace free from inequalities for our 4,486 people (headcount as of 30 June 2024), where all our people are valued, respected, and feel supported to reach their full potential. Our approach is based around our 3 diversity and inclusion strategic goals:
- Diverse workforce - We will break down barriers to inclusion, and celebrate, retain, develop, and attract a truly diverse workforce that is representative of the communities we serve.
- Inclusive workplace - We will create a safe and open working environment where all our people feel able to grow and do their best work without fear of embarrassment or retaliation.
- Leadership and accountability - We will actively demonstrate our commitment to an inclusive culture through our leadership, and we will hold ourselves accountable for our progress.
These goals are supported and reinforced through Kia Toipoto – Public Service Pay Gaps Action Plan guidance, and are aligned with Papa Pounamu, which sets the diversity and inclusion work programme for the wider Public Service, with guidance from Te Kawa Mataaho Public Service Commission.
This Diversity, Equity and Inclusion roadmap is complemented by an equal focus on supporting the career development of Māori. These actions can be found in our Māori representation roadmap.

Our focus continues to respond to the needs of our diverse workforce, providing people from different communities with what they need to perform at their best. This means supporting leaders to lead diverse people, enabling them to achieve their goals, grow in their roles and contribute to organisational priorities.
