Did You know that By this year 100% of our workforce growth will come from immigration?
Canada will be increasingly reliant on immigrant talent to meet its skills and labour force requirements. Per capita, the Ottawa region attracts the most highly skilled and educated immigrants in Canada. 83% of all immigrants who settle in Ottawa hold a university degree.
Employers who diversify their workforce are better able to:
• Attract and retain top talent to alleviate skill and labour shortages
• Better understand and respond to the increasingly diverse local customer base
• Expand local markets, and develop new global markets, by leveraging immigrants’experience and cultural awareness
• Enhance productivity, creativity, employee relations, and decision-making through diverse approaches
• Save on employee training costs by utilizing transferable foreign work experience
