Federal departments are moving their web content to Canada.ca. As a part of that process, proactive disclosure reports will become available through the Open Government portal. During this transition, if a proactive disclosure report from a specific department is not yet available on the Open Government portal please refer to Proactive disclosure by department or agency where a copy can be found.

About this information

On February 25, 2004, the government announced the mandatory publication of information concerning the reclassification of positions in the Public Service of Canada.

This web site provides information on the reclassification of positions by department and agencies on a quarterly basis.

The rules and principles governing the reclassification of positions are outlined in the Appendix I of the Directive on Classification.

Reclassification of positions in the Public Service of Canada is an important and necessary business management option. However, when contemplating changes to a position that may result in reclassification, management must endeavour to ensure the proper, effective and efficient use of public money. The cost implication associated with upward reclassification must be known, transparent and support accountability for classification decisions.

Government-Wide Position Reclassification Departmental Web Sites information on these websites will be updated every three months, starting in October 2004.

Please note that information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act or the Privacy Act does not appear on this web site.
