Organization structure of the office
Following the advice of Ombudsman Toronto, the FISCC Office is a specialized unit within the TTC’s Department of Human Rights and Investigations under TTC’s new Diversity and Culture Group.
The Office consists of a manager, and four investigators. The full FISCC team will also include a coordinator and a shared data analyst. Our team members come from very diverse lived experiences and professional backgrounds, including human rights, law, regulatory investigations, and human resources. All investigators have specialized training and experience in conducting investigations through a diversity and human rights lens.
The FISCC Office is physically located separate from other TTC Departments. The FISCC Investigators reach their investigation findings separate from TTC management, employees, and the public
