You will be responsible for obtaining the criminal record check at your own expense and provide it, along with your written consent, to the Transition and Security Office (TSO), HR Service Delivery Division to evaluate the results.

The details of an individual's screening check(s) will be considered in specific relation to the duties and responsibilities of the position being filled.
