The Public Service 2000 (PS2000) was a pub … The Public Service 2000 (PS2000) was a public service reform initiative that took place in the Canadian public service between 1989–1993. Borrowing heavily from the teachings of New Public Management, the PS2000 sought to update the public service by making it less complex, cheaper, more flexible, and efficient by removing red tape and implementing new management philosophies while decentralizing decision-making to better empower public servants to deliver services through personnel decision-making Announced by Brian Mulroney's government in 1989, the PS2000 was distinct from other efforts to modernize the public service in that it would be led by the public service itself. Headed by the Clerk of the Privy Council with assistance from the Chairman of the Public Service Commission and the Secretary of the Treasury Board, a review of the public service was undertaken by ten task forces made up of 120 deputy and assistant deputy ministers and other senior public service officials resulting in over 300 recommendations being made to improve the public service. Ten areas for improvement were addressed by the task forces:
* Classification and Occupational Group Structures
* Training and Development
* Compensation and Benefits
* Work Force Adaptiveness
* Management Category
* Administrative Policy and Common Service Agencies
* Staff Relations
* Resource Management and Budget Controls
* Staffing
* Service to the Public The task forces completed their research in 1990, and the recommendations were announced that December in a government white paper. The PS2000 was moderately successful, implementing many of the recommendations that had been made to better modernize the public service and instill a service-oriented culture in the public service. Two annual reports were delivered to Parliament on the continuing efforts of the PS2000, as well as the passing of the Public Service Reform Act, 1992 as a result of the white paper. However, through a series of events over 3 years the PS2000 was robbed of much of its initial momentum and optimism. A string of budget cuts as a result of a recession, a three-year wage freeze to public servants, and the Public Service Alliance of Canada's general strike (which would be the single largest Canadian union strike in history) would sour labor-management relations. Additionally, the “quiet crisis” of La Relève, the Al-Mashat affair of 1991, increased privatization of public services, and a change of government in 1993 would further hamper the PS2000's implementation. Still, the PS2000 was successful in implementing many of its suggestions through structural, cultural and legislative changes.uctural, cultural and legislative changes.
