Canadians have the most effective public service in the world, says a new international study.[1] I’m not surprised. Working with public service professionals, I know just how valuable our members are to Canadians.

Greetings, you have certainly heard about the #metoo or #moiaussi movement carried by victims of sexual misconduct, harassment and assaults. Do not put heads in the sand, this certainly does not occur only to others.

Tolerance toward these behaviours should not be an option. Whether you are a victim or a witness, talk about it.

Talk to a trusted friend or colleague.

Talk to a family member.

Request For Interest

The CS Group Executive is looking for stewards that are interested in being involved in the contracting out action plan which will target contracting out of CS work within the public service.   The work will involve placing grievances and following through the process with the support of PIPSC staff and the CS Group Contracting Out Action Team.  Training will be provided.

Please fill out the following application and send to:

Eva Henshaw

Contracting Out Officer

CS Group Executive

The RE and SP groups have identified conference attendance as a significant issue.  During the last bargaining rounds the employer admitted that it had incomplete data on conference attendance and denials, and thus PIPSC would like to collect more information from members on their conference attendance experiences to build a comprehensive database for both approved and denied attendance. We would ask all members to report on their conference attendance and non-attendance in the form at:
