Queensland's public service will be reformed and regulators will have independence under proposed laws, the premier says.
The reforms come four months after a review of government accountability and culture by public administrator and academic Professor Peter Coaldrake.
His report highlighted a tolerance for bullying and a reluctance to deviate from the perceived official government line among public servants.
Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk will table two bills on Friday to reform the public service accountability and culture and to "strengthen the independence and authority" of the state's auditor-general and integrity commissioner.
"So that Queensland has the most responsive, consistent and reliable public service possible - a public service that is fair, an employer of choice and a leader in public administration," she told parliament on Friday.
The premier also announced she has appointed former NSW deputy and Victorian assistant ombudsman Linda Waugh as Queensland's new integrity commissioner.
Her predecessor, Dr Nikola Stepanov, resigned in controversy earlier this year after a laptop was removed from her office by the Public Service Commission without her permission.
A Crime and Corruption Commission probe found no wrongdoing in relation to the device.
However, the watchdog questioned the "ongoing suitability" of the Department of Premier and Cabinet providing IT services for the Integrity Commissioner.
The CCC also pointed out public service bosses controlled the lobbyist watchdog's staff and budget.
