The Western Australia Police Aboriginal Service Medal: Awarded in acknowledgement of Aboriginal employees in recognition of their service and commitment to the agency and community. Historical records show that Aboriginal people have worked with police in WA since the early nineteenth century in significant roles such as Aboriginal Police Liaison Officers and Aboriginal Assistants. This award is an important step in reconciliation between Aboriginal people and Police. The inaugural Aboriginal Service Medal Award Ceremony took place on Thursday 30 May 2019 at Government House.
The medal is copper/bronze plated, with the riband representing colours of the aboriginal flag.
