Was the first British colony in Australia created for government workers?

Yes and no. The first British colony in Australia was created for two main purposes: to solve the problem of too many prisoners in England, and to create a British presence in the South Pacific to give the British Empire an advantage. Thus, the people who were sent there - the convicts - were expected to work to build the colony, but they were not classified as government workers by any means. On the other hand, they needed supervision, so the marines who guarded them and the officers who oversaw the operations were certainly appointed by the government.
