Introduction
The Government of Canada is committed to reducing barriers that may prevent persons with disabilities from fully participating in the workforce and developing and acquiring the skills they need for employment. With the enactment of the Accessible Canada Act, the government has made a clear commitment to a public service where persons with disabilities can contribute to their fullest in helping the federal government serve Canadians. The Public Service Commission (PSC), Clerk of the Privy Council 2022/2023 Deputy Minister Commitments on Diversity and Inclusion, the Accessible Canada Act are committed to the Public Service of Canada Accessibility Strategy's first goal: to improve the recruitment, retention and promotion of persons with disabilities. One of the positive measures we are taking towards this goal, is working across all departments and agencies to hire 5,000 net new persons with disabilities by 2025. Let’s continue building an inclusive public service by hiring diverse and competent future public servants…starting here!
