Many employment opportunities exist in Canada for citizens of other countries. While agricultural jobs have traditionally been the focus and continue to be available, employment in other industries, including factories, warehouses and restaurants/hotels, has significantly increased for foreign national over the past number of years.
Fiducia aligns itself with reputable employers who understand their obligations to provide safe, secure and abuse-free work environments to its employees, including temporary foreign workers. Just as much as we stand behind the employers we represent, we also do what is necessary to protect the temporary foreign workers we help bring to Canada.
