A stocker works at a store organizing, stocking, and restocking shelves with goods for sale. Typically, stores that employ dedicated stockers are larger facilities such as department, appliance, and hardware stores; supermarkets also use stockers. The primary job of a stocker is to replace and rotate items on the sales floor in compliance with store procedures. They may follow inventory or restock reports generated by previous or ongoing sales data to replace items. In instances where new products are to be offered, the stocker typically helps manage space and display areas as part of the job.

The Ottawa Improvement Commission was replaced by the Federal District Commission in 1927 and in 1959 the Federal District Commission was replaced by the National Capital Commission.

OBS

A Crown corporation of the Government of Canada, the National Capital Commission(NCC) was created in 1959 as the steward of federal lands and buildings in the National Capital Region. Its job, simply put, is to plan, develop and use these properties as a source of pride and unity for Canadians. The boulevards and monuments in Canada's Capital, the Parks and heritage buildings, the national festivals--these are just some of the results of over a century of ongoing strategic effort by the NCC and its predecessors.

OBS

En 1927, le nom de la Commission a été remplacé par «Commission du district fédéral». En 1959 le nom «Commission du district fédéral» est remplacé par «Commission de la Capitale nationale».

OBS

La Commission de la capitale nationale (CCN) est une société d'État du gouvernement canadien, qui a été créée en 1959 pour protéger les propriétés et les terrains fédéraux de la région de la capitale nationale. Elle doit aussi réaliser la planification urbaine et l'aménagement de la capitale et utiliser les propriétés fédérales de sorte qu'elles soient une source de fierté pour les Canadiens et qu'elles consolident leur appartenance à la collectivité canadienne. Ainsi, la CCN et les organismes qui l'ont précédée ont travaillé fort et de façon stratégique au cours du dernier siècle pour construire des boulevards et ériger des monuments dans la capitale du Canada, pour aménager des parcs et protéger les bâtiments patrimoniaux et aussi pour offrir des programmes d'envergure nationale.
