Work environment

Could this be the change you’ve been looking for?

Do you like working in a fast-paced, results-oriented environment that values service excellence? Are you looking for a chance to make your mark in a small organization that plays a big role in providing justice to Canadians? If so, consider a career at the Administrative Tribunals Support Service of Canada (ATSSC).

You’ll be able to benefit and learn from being closer to management and having the opportunity to be exposed to a variety of files. We’re also committed to supporting a healthy life-work balance and to creating an inclusive and respectful work environment, so we hope that this is something that is important to you as well.

Like many public servants, we’ve been working mostly remotely since the pandemic began and employees have access to tools and processes to conduct most aspects of their work remotely.

And if there is one last thing to note that is impactful for our employees, it's the fact that we have our own internal compensation and benefits Advisors and a dedicated information technology team.

Information on employment equity

As per the new Policy on COVID-19 Vaccination for the Core Public Administration Including the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, federal public servants in the Core Public Administration and members of the RCMP must attest to their vaccination status. The requirement for employees to be fully vaccinated applies whether they are teleworking, working remotely or working on-site. This is a condition of employment and it applies to indeterminate (permanent), determinate (term), casual, and student hiring. Should you reach the point in the selection process where it is necessary to verify terms and conditions of employment then the hiring manager or a human resources representative will contact you in order to complete an attestation.
