SASKATCHEWAN PUBLIC SERVICE EARNS NATIONAL RECOGNITION
Released on May 14, 1999
Doreen Hamilton, minister responsible for the Public Service
Commission, today announced that the Saskatchewan Public Service
Commission has won a national award for its work in human resource
management.
The Gold Star Agency Award, the Canadian Public Personnel Management
Association's highest honour, recognizes organizations for outstanding
support for the association and for innovative principles and
practices that lead to overall improvements in human resource
programs.
"The PSC has played a key leadership role in moving human resources
from an administrative focus to a strategic business partnership,"
Hamilton said. "I would like to congratulate the PSC for its
outstanding work and I would also like to thank all provincial public
servants for their continuing contributions to the betterment of this
province and its people."
The Gold Star Agency Award is not presented each year. This year,
however, there were two outstanding nominations and Natural Resources
Canada will also receive an award. Previous winners include the
federal public service La RelŠve initiative in Ottawa in 1998 and the
Health Care Corporation of St. John's in Newfoundland in 1997.
The PSC is the independent agency responsible for recruiting
employees and co-ordinating staff training and development, as
well as human resource planning, job classification,
compensation, collective bargaining, contract administration and
other support services to the Government of Saskatchewan. It
also co-ordinates the government's Employment Equity Program and
Employee and Family Assistance Program.
CPPMA is a national organization for human resource
professionals. The award will be presented to Public Service
Commission Chair Wynne Young in Ottawa on May 18, 1999.
