Recherche dans la collection - Position Information Classification System (PICS) [textual record (electronic)]

The Position Information Collection System (PICS) is comprised of position oriented classification data of all positions within the public service (under the PSSRA) and includes data on criteria and methods employed in determining job classifications. The position orientation of the system gives PICS the ability to generate longitudinal studies or global profiles of changes in the composition of job types.

System documentation is filed in a documentation package; more may be on the tapes.

The original records transferred in this accession proved unreadable and were replaced. The replacement extracts from the data base were registered as part of accession 1994-95/786 (Mikan 47629). The older accession reference remains active in the FINDER data base finding aid but otherwise, the accession really duplicates part of the accession 1994-95/786.

In 2005, records in the FIND ER data base were integrated into MIKAN and the files attached to this accession as per the FIND ER reference. However, technically the correct link for these files is Mikan accession 47629. For the full custodial history and to complete processing of the records to preservation copies consult this second accession record and related registrations. Incongruities in the G000 numbers cited in the file record(s) and the legacy accession record were noted but could not be resolved at the time of this entry."
