Commissioner's update for correctional employees: January 13, 2025
This content is a message to Correctional Service Canada (CSC) staff from CSC's Commissioner.
Our mission: The Correctional Service of Canada, as part of the criminal justice system and respecting the rule of law, contributes to public safety by actively encouraging and assisting offenders to become law-abiding citizens, while exercising reasonable, safe, secure and humane control.
Our core values: Respect, fairness, professionalism, inclusiveness, and accountability.
Last week, I had the pleasure to attend a special ceremony at La Macaza Institution. We first held a Change of Command Ceremony and officially passed the key to the institution from the former Warden to the new Warden.
We also celebrated several employees for reaching milestones in their careers. Some were recognized for 20 years of exemplary service or dedicated years of service, and others for their exceptional work during the Port-Cartier evacuation.
I am truly grateful to be working among such passionate and dedicated people who value and believe in our mission. Thank you for all your contributions.
Community supervision in the North
If you haven’t had the chance to read the latest “Let’s Talk” article, I encourage you to learn more about the important and great work your colleagues are doing.
Working in the North brings with it its own set of unique challenges. You can learn more about how your colleagues rise to the occasion every day, in their own words.
Kudos to Rebecca Austin, Philip Dai, Erin Jamieson, and Hamza Al-Baghdadi for sharing their stories and thank you for your commitment, dedication, and service.
Public Service Employee Survey: Thank you for your participation
I want to express my gratitude to each and every one of you that participated in this year’s PSES. Your feedback is invaluable and plays a crucial role in helping us understand the experience, needs, and perspectives of our employees.
The results will directly influence the strategies we implement to improve our work environment, strengthen our support systems, and foster a more inclusive and engaging culture.
CSC’s results will be posted in the summer of 2025.
Thank you again for your commitment and dedication to improving our organization.
Every job is a self-portrait of the person who did it. Autograph your work with excellence.
