PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION (PSC)
The Public Service Commission (PSC) was established in 1948 to create a highly motivated, performance oriented and cost-effective public sector. PSC is mandated by the Constitution of Sierra Leone to appoint persons to hold or act in offices in the Public Service, including the power to make appointments, promotions and to exercise disciplinary control over persons holding or acting in such offices.
In 2008, in addition to its constitutional mandate, PSC was transformed to oversee policies relating to recruitment and selection; training and staff development; discipline; public sector pay and performance as well as monitoring of these policies.

The head of the Commission is the Chairman assisted by four Commissioners appointed by the President. The PSC has the following directorates: Recruitment & Career Development Directorate; Policy & Communications Directorate; Human Resource Audit Directorate and Corporate Services Directorate.
