Civil service renewal (revitalizing the civil service)

The Civil Service Renewal Strategy is the most comprehensive, collaborative and sustained effort that has been undertaken to identify and resolve human resource issues in the Manitoba Government.  The goals of the strategy are:

1. Renewal – Working for the Manitoba Government is a rewarding and attractive career
2. Sustainability – good service is maintained despite turnover and change
3. Diversity – greater representation exists at all levels in the civil service

A nine-member Deputy Minister Advisory Committee on Human Resources, chaired by the Civil Service Commissioner, guides of the implementation of the strategy.  See Internship, Equity and Employee Development Programs and New Professionals Workshop for additional information on some of the of initiatives undertaken as a result of this strategy.
