EHRC's employer funding programs

The electricity sector in Canada is growing. Current forecasts suggest an additional 2-3x more generation, transmission and distribution capacity by 2050. This means a growing workforce to build, operate and maintain this new carbon-neutral infrastructure. EHRC is here to help with wage subsidies and hiring incentives to support employers in hiring their future employees, and offering a new generation of talent opportunities to work in this growing industry.
