CWD Implementation Strategy
• CWD mandatory wherever applicable;
• Phased-in approach, implementing a few
CWDs at a time;
• Systematic jobbing process, conducted by regional HR and coordinated by DCCO;
• Managers required to validate coincidence of duties, with guidance from ClassO;
• Planning to pilot the approach with GL-PIPs, followed with various GL and GS sub-groups.

CWD Implementation Strategy (cont’d)
• Direction coming from DM and CDS;
• Limit classification of unique WDs:
 Is there a suitable CWD? Must use it.
 If no CWD, is there an existing classified WD that can be applied in the meantime?
 If neither CWD nor other classified WD available, can submit a unique WD.
