Canada Public Service Commission

The Canada Public Service Commission (CPSC; French: Commission de Service public du Canada, CSPC) is an agency of the Canadian federal government which functions as Canada's civil service commission at the federal level, responsible for the recruitment, training, management and compensation of all employees of the Canadian federal government. While personnel of certain federal agencies, such as the RCMP or Canadian Forces, are employed directly by their organisation, the CPSC nevertheless is responsible for administering special compensation and benefits for these employees. The highest-ranking member of the CPSC, the director, serves ex officio as Cabinet Secretary in the Cabinet of Canada.
