SSC (Staff Selection Commission) - Central Police Organisation
The Staff Selection Commission is functioning under the Department of Personnel
& Training, Government of India. Initially known as Subordinate Services Commission,
it was set up on 1 July 1976 primarily to make recruitment on zonal basis for non-technical
Group C posts under the Central Government, except the post for which recruitment
was made by Railway Service Commission and the industrial establishments. The functions
of the Staff Selection Commission have been enlarged from time to time and now it
carries out the recruitment for Group B posts also under the Central Government.
Thus, the Commission recruits for the major work force of the Central Government.
This segment constitutes the most vital part of the Government machinery; the posts
for which it makes recruitment are at the grassroots level which interact with the
public and interface with the implementation of the Government’s policies.
