BUILDING STRONGER
Setting the Standard
and Building Stronger
Skilled trades will play a vital role in our economic recovery, helping BC come back stronger. By using Community Benefits Agreements to build critical infrastructure, we contribute billions of dollars to the provincial economy and create thousands of good paying, skilled jobs for British Columbians. Community Benefits Agreements set the standard so projects are built the right way, put safety first and keep our communities resilient in the face of climate change.
Community Benefits Agreements
Several infrastructure projects across BC are committing to Community Benefits Agreements – a tool to make sure we have more skilled workers building the safest bridges, roads and tunnels in our communities.
This means it’s local workers on the job building back BC’s economy. We have more Indigenous people, women and youth working in their own communities. Community Benefits Agreements also secure more training and apprenticeship opportunities to build the next generation of skilled tradespeople in BC.
