What are the strategic directions? The Employment Insurance Commission consists of five parts that highlight specific instructions for completing the work of the Employment Insurance Commission. The first part of the Employment Insurance Act focuses on income support benefits for people who are temporarily out of work. In the second part he focuses on active employment benefits and supports measures to enable those who are unemployed to return to work. Under Part Three of the Employment Insurance Act, the Commission annually reviews and is able to make any changes to the premium rates of insured workers and employers. The fourth part of the law is subject to the obligation of the Minister of National Revenue. The Minister of National Revenue is responsible for making “decisions on the insurability of employment and the amount of insurable wages and premiums payable in respect of insurable employment. All discussions in this area are referred to the Tax Court of Canada” (CITE). Finally, the fifth part deals with the appeal system and the formation of the Board of Arbitrators.

However, if one part of the department does not perform its assigned tasks, the department will fall behind and may be in serious trouble.II) Structural AnalysisWhat is the structure of the organization?The structure of the employment insurance program is administered by two parts principals of the law. The Employment Insurance Act, being one of them, is a federal legislation, passed by Parliament, that defines the basic structure of the program. The Employment Insurance Act includes administration, benefits, eligibility...... middle of paper ......d $3 in 2009/10, respectively), the average weekly benefit rate for regular claims increased significantly by $13 from $371 in 2010/11 to $384 in 2011/12. The increase in 2011/12 is consistent with annual increases observed during the pre-recession period, when the average weekly benefit rate increased by $16 in 2008/09, by $12 in 2007/08, and by $11 in 2006/07". http://www.esdc.gc.ca/eng/jobs/ei/reports/mar2012/im ages/chapter2-07.jpg As illustrated, there have been many more failures than successes of the Employment Insurance Program . It is very important to take these failures seriously and try to improve them, because this department is very useful to many Canadian citizens. But it is useless that many Canadians do not know the many benefits and try to help them. Furthermore, many restrictions are put in place to prevent many citizens from receiving this benefit.
