2022-02-21

32.3. Exceptionally and to the extent that the person must meet the minimum conditions of eligibility or the additional requirements provided for in the desired profile to be appointed to the position, a person may participate in the selection process aimed at filling that position even if, at the time the person is applying, the person does not meet those conditions or requirements, in any of the following situations:

(1)  the person is awaiting his proof of Canadian citizenship, proof of permanent residency or work permit issued by the federal authority;

(2)  the person is in the process of meeting the requirements to be a member of the professional order required for the position to be filled;

(3)  the person is in the process of completing the last year of the most advanced formal training required for the position to be filled;

(4)  the person is awaiting a qualification, certification or permit issued by a competent authority in the matter; or

(5)  any other situation determined by the Conseil du trésor.

Despite the first paragraph, a person referred to in subparagraph 3 or 4 of that paragraph may be appointed to a position even if the person does not meet the minimum conditions of eligibility or the additional requirements, provided the person is in the process of meeting them within a time period corresponding to the length of the person’s probationary period less a day, without exceeding one year. Failure to comply with that last condition will result in the termination of the person’s employment.

The Conseil du trésor shall determine any other applicable rule for the purposes of this section.
