What We Do
For Employers
Untapped labour pool
Employers are missing out on untapped labour pools when they are not diverse, equitable and inclusive. We help you reach more candidates and reduce turnover.
It's good for business!
Diverse, equitable and inclusive employers attract more business, have more creative ideas, have better morale and productivity, and have lower turnover! We provide training, resources and support.
Find your perfect match
As an equitable employment service, we listen to what the employer needs, and compare those to the skills and interests of our current job seekers. We also help with effective job postings, hiring fairs and partner connections to further expand your recruitment reach!
People Say The Nicest Things
We are proud of our Clients and Employers who are able to create strong connections in our community.
