Labor will increase its majority in the next parliament, after winning at least 85 seats in Saturday's election and is on track to win more as the vote count continues.
While there have been calls for the party to expand its policy offerings after the size of the victory, Labor minister Amanda Rishworth said the platform it had put to voters was already ambitious.
"We've obviously had a very strong result at the election, but it's not a result that our prime minister or we as the Labor Party are going to take for granted," she told Nine's Today program on Tuesday.
"We've got a really bold agenda that we have to implement. We made our policies and our proposition very clear, and that's what we've got to get on and deliver now."
Retired Labor MP Graham Perrett said people needed to focus on what Prime Minister Anthony Albanese had already promised to do.
"He's a pretty straightforward bloke. What he promised before the election is what he'll deliver after the election," he said.
"There's a lot of challenges in there, in terms of climate change, defence and the economy and productivity and a few other things in there ... that's a big agenda for any second-term government."
On other issues, including Indigenous reconciliation, Mr Perrett said while the government could walk and chew gum at the same time, there were enough challenges in an uncertain world to keep the cabinet busy over the next three years.
Attention has now turned to the make-up of the Albanese government's second-term cabinet, with Labor factions meeting later this week to decide on members to put forward for frontbench roles.
The prime minister had already said senior MPs, including Treasurer Jim Chalmers, Foreign Minister Penny Wong, Finance Minister Katy Gallagher and Trade Minister Don Farrell, would remain in their positions.
However, other positions within the frontbench are up for grabs, with the prime minister to make decisions on portfolios in the coming days.
Senator Wong said frontbench changes were a decision for the prime minister, brushing off speculation she would step down from her role as foreign minister.
"We've made a commitment to serve the whole of this term, but yes, (with) the size of the win, we can genuinely do the work for the Australian people, and set the country up for long-term, stable Labor government," she said.
Labor national president Wayne Swan said what clearly stood out was that people wanted stability.
"They preferred a majority Labor government in the times of international uncertainty," he told AAP.
