History
This division was established in 1972, and was initially responsible for overseeing the activities of the Employment Standards Branch, the Industrial Safety Branch and the Construction Safety Branch.
The division had no direct predecessor; some of its branches were formerly in the Manpower Services Division, and others were in the Safety and Technical Services Division.
In May 1973, the Employment Adjustment Service Branch was added to this division and, in 1975-1976, an Information Services Branch also came under its jurisdiction.
Its name was changed to the Labour Services Division in 1975.
