Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people made up just 0.5 per cent of the gallery's workforce in 2014, far below the benchmark of 2.6 per cent. The figures provided by the gallery also revealed the situation had worsened since 2012, when indigenous people made up 1.2 per cent of its workforce.
The gallery also reported declines in the employment of people with disability and from a non-English-speaking background.
