Monash University supports universal human rights and stands strongly against all forms of modern slavery. The University is committed to actively seek out and address any potential instances of modern slavery within its global operations and supply chain.
In 2023 Monash completed the fourth year of its five year continuous improvement program to systematically address modern slavery within our operations and supply chain, the full details of which are published as the University’s 2023 Statement on the Modern Slavery Act.

The Monash University Group had 18,018 total staff (9,8460 FTE) and total operating expenses of $3248.3 million from continuing operations in 2023.
In 2023, the median length of service of Monash staff was 5.4 years, the highest median length of services for seven years.

Monash University offers staff the option to substitute the Australia Day public holiday with another day, acknowledging that January 26 is not a day of celebration for all Australians. This initiative is part of the University's commitment to respecting Indigenous culture and communities.

The Monash Global Staff Mentoring Program was offered across Australian and international campuses and locations for the first time in 2023. The five-month program matched mentees with senior staff members to build professional skills, more effectively navigate the University, grow their leadership capabilities and enhance their potential for career progression.
Mentors had the opportunity to refine their leadership and management skills and grow their networks. In total, 643 participants – 575 of whom were based in Australia – took part as a mentee or mentor, or both in 2023.
