      History

      The Ontario Joint Council was established under the auspices of the Civil Service Commission in 1962, and replaced the former Joint Advisory Council. It originally consisted of 8 members, 4 nominated by the Lieutenant Governor in Council, three on the recommendation of the Civil Service Association; and a Chair appointed by the Lieutenant Governor.

      The size of the Council was reduced in 1966 to three members nominated by the Lieutenant Governor in Council and three by the Civil Service Association.

      In 1972 the Ontario Joint Council was abolished in favour of the Ontario Public Service Labour Relations Tribunal which assumed responsibility for all of its former duties.
