NSW's DPIRD faces a morale crisis after 165 job cuts, with staff satisfaction at a six-year low and concerns over weakened service and biosecurity.
A major morale crisis at NSW's Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development follows the loss of 165 jobs, with the 2025 employee survey showing staff satisfaction at its lowest in six years.
Only 51% would recommend the workplace, down 10 points, while burnout, overwhelming workloads, and declining engagement have risen.
Critics say cuts have weakened the department’s ability to respond to biosecurity threats and serve farmers, despite the government attributing the drop to a recent merger and ongoing change efforts.
Only 26% of staff believe their feedback will lead to real change.
