Assessment accommodation

Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, many employees of Indigenous Services Canada are currently working remotely, with the occasional requirement to attend at Canada Place in Edmonton. The department is actively working on a flexible, phased approach for the safe return of employees to their usual workspaces.

Work environment

About Indigenous Services Canada and the First Nations and Inuit Health Branch:

In August, 2017, the creation of a new department, Indigenous Services Canada was announced. Since that time, the First Nations and Inuit Health Branch has transitioned from Health Canada to the new department.

Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) works collaboratively with partners to improve access to high quality services for First Nations, Inuit and Métis. Our vision is to support and empower Indigenous peoples to independently deliver services and address the socio-economic conditions in their communities.

The First Nations and Inuit Health Branch supports the delivery of public health and health promotion services on-reserve and in Inuit communities. It also provides drug, dental and ancillary health services to First Nations and Inuit people regardless of residence.

This is an exciting opportunity to work with an established branch in a new department and play a key role in the attainment of its priorities.

Intent of the process

This process will be used to establish a pool of qualified candidates which may be used to staff positions in various locations, with various linguistic profiles, for various tenures such as indeterminate, term, secondment, assignment, deployment or acting appointments.

The intent is to staff this position via the Aboriginal Peoples Employment Program, which aims to strategically increase Indigenous representation within the First Nations and Inuit Health Branch. As such, Organizational Needs may be applied and first consideration may be given to candidates self identifying as belonging to Indigenous peoples.
