Helping businesses tackle the labour and skill challenges

Trevor Neiman highlights the link between reducing Canada’s chronic worker shortage and removing barriers for newcomers to integrate into the labour force.  His perspective was featured in an article by the Financial Post on the difficulties that immigrants face when applying to jobs because of a failure to recognize their qualifications.   

“If we can help newcomers ply the trade in which they were trained for, that will help businesses tackle these labour and skill challenges that they are facing.”
