Indigenous employment

Indigenous employment refers to job opportunities and workforce participation for Indigenous peoples, such as First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities, within broader industries and organizations. It aims to promote economic inclusion, reduce unemployment, and support community development by creating equitable access to employment, training, and career advancement. Promoting Indigenous employment also fosters cultural understanding and respects Indigenous rights, contributing to social and economic wellbeing. Employers may implement targeted programs, partnerships, and policies to increase Indigenous representation and support sustainable job growth in Indigenous communities.
