<h2>Civil Service Commission</h2>
<p>A <b>civil service commission</b> is a government agency that is constituted by legislature to regulate the employment and working conditions of civil servants, oversee hiring and promotions, and promote the values of the public service. Its role is roughly analogous to that of the human resources department in corporations. Civil service commissions are often independent from elected politicians.</p>
<p>In Fiji for example, the Fiji Public Service Commission reviews government statutory powers to ensure efficiency and effectiveness in meeting public sector management objectives. It also acts as the human relations department, or central personnel authority, for the citizens' interactions with the government.</p>
<p>Other examples of civil service commissions from other countries include Australian Public Service Commission, Bangladesh Public Service Commission, Brunei Public Service Commission, Public Service Commission of Canada, Kenya Public Service Commission, Union Public Service Commission in India, Federal Civil Service Commission in Nigeria, South Africa Public Service Commission, Zimbabwe Public Service Commission and so on.</p>
