• Ontario. Dept. of the Attorney General. Personnel Branch

The Human Resources Branch was established in 1964 as the Personnel Branch. The name was changed to the Human Resources Branch in 1981. Between 1964 and 1997, the branch formed a part of the Corporate Services Division of the Ontario Department of the Attorney General (from 1964-1969), the Ontario Department of Justice (from 1969-1972) and the Ontario Ministry of the Attorney General (since 1972). In 1997, however, the branch was transferred to the newly created Business Improvement Division, which is responsible for coordinating the various corporate and business planning activities of the Ministry.

The Human Resources Branch develops, coordinates and administers the personnel services of the Ontario Ministry of the Attorney General. Responsibilities of the branch include the establishment and administration of human resources policies and procedures, classification and compensation levels, staff recruitment, training and development, employee counselling, and staff relations. The branch also maintains the personnel, payroll and employee benefits records, and liases with the Human Resources Secretariat and the Ontario Public Service Employees Union (OPSEU). From 1989 to 1994, the branch also had responsibility over the Employment Equity Program.
