A new framework agreement will bring more trades opportunities for Indigenous peoples and women in BC.
The new Community Benefits Agreement will see the province work with local communities on key public-sector infrastructure projects, including the building of roads, bridges, and other projects.
This collaboration will deliver well paying jobs as well as opportunities for apprenticeships and better training.
The projects under the agreement will place a priority on hiring Indigenous peoples as well as locals to the communities where the projects are taking place.
