| The Core Competencies for Public Health in Canada (Release 1.0 Core
Competencies) have been identified for individuals with training in public health including front line providers, consultants/specialists and managers/supervisors. The core competencies describe the essential knowledge, skills or other attitudes necessary for the practice of public health. The Public Health Employee Performance Management Competencies,
(Competencies) with associated behavioural statements, have been developed to give specific examples of how an employee can demonstrate the behaviours associated with each of the Core Competencies for the purpose of performance
management. The Competencies are only one component of Public Health Competency Based Employee Performance Management. Other competencies specific to an
organization, program or discipline should be considered when assessing
performance. For the purpose of this framework and the accompanying tools, the focus will be exclusively on the Public Health Employee Performance Management Competencies, with the capacity to include other specific
competencies as required on an individual basis. Public Health Competency Based Employee Performance Management
