MyGCHR is coming!
On April 1, 2024, MyGCHR will become the ATSSC's new Human Resources management system.
Currently used by over 45 departments and agencies, MyGCHR will offer employees, managers and members several self-service features, bringing about greater autonomy and efficiency.
Being a modern government standard HR system, MyGCHR will facilitate accurate and more fulsome data entry, particularly from our HR specialists, allowing for improved reporting and metrics capabilities which will be a benefit to us all.
I am excited for this change and encourage each of you to consult the various tools provided here to better support you in this transition.

Public Service Employee Survey Results
Public Service Employee Surveys (PSES) give employees the opportunity to tell us how we are doing as an organization from an employee-experience perspective.
The ATSSC is proud to have scored above the Public Service in every category for the 2020 PSES, as we strive to be an employer of choice!
Consult the ATSSC's detailed results for the 2020 PSES and compare with results for the Public Service as a whole.
About Administrative Tribunals (general info)
Administrative tribunals:
- Were created to provide justice between citizens and the government.
- Also recognized as "Expert Tribunals", they supply expertise and knowledge in a specific area of law.
- Get their powers from a statute, allowing decision-makers to decide only on those matters over which their tribunal has jurisdiction under the statute.
- Allow for matters to be heard and decisions to be made more quickly and efficiently.
- Alleviate workload and free up time for the courts (which are more costly to operate).
Natural justice and procedural fairness are procedures that administrative tribunal decision-makers must follow to act fairly; these include:
- Notice: The applicant must be given adequate notice of the nature of the proceedings and of the issue to be decided.
- Disclosure: Depending on the nature of the case, all evidence to be used against an applicant must be disclosed.
- Opportunity to present one's case and to respond: The applicant must be provided with an opportunity to present whatever evidence they wish to be considered. While the right to be heard generally implies a hearing, it does not always mean an oral hearing. Submissions can be made in writing.
- Right to an impartial decision maker and freedom of bias
- Institutional independence and the person who hears the case must decide
- Duty to consider all the evidence
Consult the Canadian Encyclopedia for additional information on administrative tribunals.
