There is one national advisory committee, and a divisional advisory committee for each of the sixteen divisions.
Harassment and misconduct within the RCMP
Independent Centre for Harassment Resolution
The Independent Centre for Harassment Resolution began operations in June 2021. The program is a centralized, independent unit, staffed with public service employees and civilian members whose primary mandate is to facilitate the resolution of work place harassment and violence occurrences for RCMP employees, as well as other individuals working in RCMP work places.
Professional Responsibility Sector
As a result of the Enhancing Royal Canadian Mounted Police Accountability Act, the Professional Responsibility Sector (PRS) was created to oversee the RCMP's conduct management, harassment investigation and resolution, public complaints, and grievance and appeals processes. PRS promotes the RCMP's vision for a comprehensive responsibility-based workplace regime that promotes professional, values-based decision-making and behaviour across the organization.
RCMP conduct process
In 2008, the Minister of Public Safety issued the Ministerial Directive on the RCMP Disciplinary Process. The directive requires the RCMP to complete annual reports on the management of the RCMP discipline process.
