Compensation Directives in Electronic Format
COMPENSATION COMMUNIQUÉ
October 30, 1998
SUBJECT: Compensation Directives in Electronic Format
The purpose of this communiqué is to advise you of the first release
on the Public Works and Government Services Canada (PWGSC) Compensation
Publications site. The implementation of this project aims to enable PWGSC to
improve the service given to clients by maintaining the quality of the
publications delivered, increasing the timeliness within which documentation
will be received and facilitating the ease of use of the publications by
installing electronic links and search capabilities.
Valid Compensation Directives, including Services Pay Directives, will be
posted on the Government Enterprise Network (GENet) as of October 30, 1998, and
will be accessible at the following Uniform Resource Locator (URL) address:
As compensation publications are posted on-line, the official source for
these publications will shift from the hard-copy to the electronic version.
Between December 1998 and March 2000, we will be phasing in the on-line
availability of other compensation documents such as the: Personnel-Pay Input
Manual (PPIM), Superannuation Administration Manual (SAM) and SAM Special
Bulletins, Insurance Administration Manual (IAM), Entitlement System-DSS 2000
Manual for Personnel and Pay (ENT), Superannuation Procedures Manual for
Personnel Offices Serviced by the Regional Pay System (PER) and Superannuation
Procedures Manual for Public Service Corporations (PSC).
I would like to remind you that, in accordance with our release strategy, we
will completely cease paper distribution of compensation publications available
on-line in September 2000, that is, 6 months after the last planned release. In
the meantime, we strongly encourage you to ensure that you have on-line access
to our publications and to advise us to discontinue sending you the paper
version as soon as you can access the site.
Should you require additional information, do not hesitate to communicate
with your Regional PWGSC Compensation Services Office.
