HUMAN RESOURCES
HR Division supports the goals of operational divisions (CANEX, SISIP FS and PSP) by providing – in a cost-effective manner – a full range of HR services. Services include recruiting and selection, labour negotiations, employee relations, pension and benefits, an Employee Assistance Program, rewards and recognition, and ensuring all HR components comply with applicable federal legislation.
Major concentrations this year include development of a multi-year official languages action plan to ensure that CF members and families are served in their language of choice. Further occupational health and safety measures have been implemented, including the introduction of workplace hazard assessments and environmental management, to ensure that our employees and customers have safe and healthy work places. In addition, HR Division has been effectively responding to the increased challenges of engaging and preparing employees to serve in deployed operations, and specifically, meeting the short notice requirement to staff the Tim Hortons outlet in Kandahar. Further progress has been made in harmonizing HR programs and initiatives with those of DND/CF by finalizing a Joint Statement of Understanding (JSU) on Official Languages and a JSU on Employment Equity and Diversity, Awards and Recognition, and Training and Development.
A notable achievement was the announcement by the Canadian Human Rights Commission that CFPSA had successfully met the requirements of the mandated employment equity measures.
