~~<p>'''<big>Employees</big>'''</p>~~

−

*<p>ATSSC Employees are federal public servants, working in Internal/Corporate Services or in one of the tribunal secretariats, to carry out the organization's mandate to provide support services and facilities to the tribunals it serves, as named in the [http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/A-1.5/FullText.html ''Administrative Tribunals Support Service of Canada Act''].</p><p></p>

−

~~<p>'''<big>Members</big>'''</p>~~

−

*<p>Tribunal Members are not public servants, but rather individuals who have been appointed by the Governor in Council for a term of up to 5-years, with the possibility of re-appointment. Each of the tribunals and boards served by the ATSSC is led by a Chairperson, and all its members are decision-makers of a quasi-judicial administrative tribunal.</p>

−

*The ATSSC's Chief Administrator, Orlando Da Silva, also appointed by the Governor in Council, has the rank and status of a deputy head of a department.

−

*Members are also known as GICs (Governor in Council appointees).
