Why are the Economics, Sociology and Statistics (ES) and Social Science Support (SI) Qualification Standards being revoked?
In 1999, Treasury Board approved a streamlined occupational group structure. When this occurred, the ES and SI Groups were combined to become the Economics and Social Science Services (EC) Group. Consequently, upon conversion to the EC Group on June 22, 2009, the ES and SI will cease to exist. Please consult the following documentations for additional information on the EC conversion: Classification modernization for the EC group on the TBS website; and EC Conversion Meeting Heads of HR Staffing Issues on the PSC website.
