In 1981, the Québec government integrated the "social welfare" component of the ministère des Affaires sociales with the ministère du Travail et de la Main-d’œuvre, to create the ministère du Travail, de la Main-d’œuvre et de la Sécurité du revenu. In making this decision, the government expressed its desire to link social welfare and labour issues. The ministère de l'Emploi et de la Solidarité sociale(MESS) contributes to Québec' s social development and economic prosperity by encouraging individuals to realize their full potential in the manners described below. The MESS works to promote employment, develop the labour force and improve labour market operations.
