The Communications and Marketing Branch was initially created as the Public Relations and Information Branch under the jurisdiction of the Manpower Services Division in the Department of Labour in 1965.

In 1968 the name was changed to the Information Services Branch. This Branch was under the jurisdiction of several divisions and by 1979 it fell within the Administration Division.

In 1983 the Branch underwent another name change to Communications Branch under the jurisdiction of the Finance and Administration Division. However, by 1986, the Branch was removed from that division and reported directly to the Office of the Deputy Minister.

In 1992 the Branch, which still reported directly to the Office of the Deputy Minister, was given its current name of Communications and Marketing Branch. By 1996, the Branch moved from the Office of the Deputy Minister to the Policy and Communications Division, where it resided until 2003 when the Branch again reported directly to the Office of the Deputy Minister.

The Communications and Marketing Branch informs the public, client groups and the media about the Ministry's activities. The Branch also provides communications support to the Minister, the Deputy Minister, program areas and regional offices. Activities include internal and external communications, French Language Services, communications planning, media liaison and the production and distribution of information materials.
