Border ops 'not affected' by staff issues

Australian Border Force acting commissioner Michael Outram insists staffing issues are not affecting operational results.

Australian Border Force officers have delivered a scathing assessment of their senior leaders, but the agency's acting head insists the issues are not impacting on operations.

"Yes, we've had engagement issues with our staff," ABF acting commissioner Michael Outram told the ABC on Tuesday in response to the confidential staff survey.

"(But) if you look at our operational results, over the recent period of time, we're just achieving record targets and record results."
