Temporary Foreign Worker Program

Every year, Canadian employers hire thousands of foreign workers to fill immediate skills and labour shortages.

Human Resources and Skills Development Canada (HRSDC) and Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) work to ensure that the employment of foreign workers supports economic growth and helps create more opportunities for all Canadians.
