Government Solutions that Change Lives
With sustainable, cost-effective employment solutions, we reduce federal, provincial and municipal cost pressures through proven partnerships. By working strategically with existing social service infrastructures, we maximize government funding and strengthen communities. If your government is striving to address labour force issues, high unemployment or poor workforce attachment for income assistance recipients, we will work with you and your stakeholders to reduce the social service caseload.

Strategic Solutions for Employers and Professional Associations
At WCG, we work with organizations to gain knowledge of their business goals and determine the most efficient, cost-effective ways to deliver desired results. Since 1995, we have used our expertise to help more than 65,000 businesses solve their most complex human resources challenges.

Our research and support services are vital to the continued growth and success of many professional associations. As such, we have consulted with organizations including chambers of commerce, Retail BC and the BC Construction Association to design training programs, websites, job banks and other services as required.

Surveys and Research
We conduct small and large scale surveys on human resources issues and analyze regional labour market trends and their implications. With the support of our Customer Solutions team, we gather vital research to help governments, business owners and job seekers make more informed choices. This information contributes to increased job satisfaction and workforce attachment, better economies and stronger communities.

Examples of our surveys include:

• two comprehensive surveys and reports on the recruitment and retention of persons with disabilities in British Columbia
  
• an in-depth survey on the employment of persons with disabilities in Ontario
  
• thorough skills shortages surveys in northern BC and southern rural BC
  
• wide-ranging chamber of commerce surveys regarding a variety of labour market trends and chamber member needs
