The ATSB is an independent Commonwealth Government statutory agency, reporting to the Minister for Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development and Local Government.

Our approximately 110 staff are based in our Canberra head office, and our field offices in Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney. Our 60 or so transport safety investigators and managers come from a range of transport industry, human factors and research backgrounds. Their investigation work is supported and enabled by our safety reporting and corporate support teams.
