History
The Employment Equity Office of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food was created in 1993 as part of a government wide emphasis on issues related to fairness in employment and human resources practices.
Reporting directly to the Deputy Minister, the Office developed employment plans and reports on progress toward employment equity for aboriginal peoples, Francophones, persons with disabilities, racial minorities, and women. It also delivered equity-related training and communications, maintained workforce profile data and administered employment equity funds.
The Employment Equity Office ceased to exist in 1997 following a ministry re-alignment, at which point responsibility for employment equity was returned to the Human Resources Branch.
