Immigrants: an untapped opportunity for BC employers

The Immigrant Employment Council of BC wants to connect more immigrants to employment that reflects their knowledge and experience.

We are working closely with employers and other key stakeholders — government, labour, regulatory bodies, educators, community organizations and immigrants — to improve hiring practices, encourage new policies, and change perceptions about immigrants.

Immigrants bring a world of experience to our businesses and our community. Our goal is to help BC employers access the full potential of these workers, so that our economy and communities can benefit from the skills, training and knowledge they offer.
