Standards for Selection and AssessmentThese Standards for Selection and Assessment are applicable to all occupational groups except the Executive Group. They are established by the Public Commission (PSC) pursuant to Section 12 of the Public Service Employment Act (PSEA). These Standards for Selection and Assessment supersede all previously issued selection standards, and related Staffing Manual updates for all occupational groups. These Standards are to be applied within the context of the Public Service Employment Regulations (PSER) and other statutory instruments adopted under the Public Service Employment Act. Also applicable to personnel selection in the Public Service are the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, the Canadian Human Rights Act, the Privacy Act, the Official Languages Act, and the Access to Information Act. The goal of personnel selection is to obtain sufficient information in order to judge a candidate's competence to perform the duties and responsibilities of a position, group of positions or level within an occupational group. Standards for Selection and Assessment comprise two sections. The first section prescribes the adherence to generic standards which safeguard the merit principle in personnel selection and assessment. These generic standards ensure that the necessary and relevant qualifications are identified and that the pertinent information is collected and integrated in such a way as to provide a sound basis for staffing decisions. The second section prescribes group-specific standards, cut-off scores with respect to particular qualifications and related assessment techniques. Section 2: Group - Specific Standards (all groups)
Section 2 - UCS Group - Specific Standards (all groups)
