This is only achieved for 50% of the rangers that work permanantly, not the 50% that work casually as they will earn less than the Newstart eligibility allowance and the tax-free income threshold. As a result of ranger programs, communities are strengthened and people are less likely to experience crime. Ranger work gives rangers a sense of pride, an income and an added motivation to engage in a healthier lifestyle. These outcomes will result in less crime being committed in a community. This would lead to reduced WA police touchpoints and costs, alongside savings as a result of diversions from the justice system. 3  For this analysis State and Federal Government are considered a single entity and therefore the benefits and costs have not been separated between them.
