communities closest to the project.

BCIB is the employer of the skilled trades workforce on some of BC’s biggest construction projects and uses three key tools to grow and diversify BC’s skilled trades workforce:

1) Priority hiring for Indigenous peoples, women and other groups underrepresented in the trades, including locals living within 100km of a jobsite;

2) Maximizing apprenticeship opportunities on projects so workers can grow their careers; and 3) Changing the culture on jobsites so Indigenous workers, women and others feel safe and

respected in their career.

BCIB is moving away from the traditional job application model:

People that work in construction often have experience across multiple trades. If you have experience in multiple trades, you may be eligible for multiple job openings on multiple CBA projects local to your community.

BCIB hires based on forecasts from the Prime Contractor, meaning that different jobs in different trades may become available at different times. Creating and updating a BCIB profile allows candidates to be assessed for all incoming positions.

BCIB is partnered with the Allied Infrastructure Related Construction Council of BC, which represents 19 trades unions. We send completed BCIB applicant profiles to these unions for review. BCIB works with our union affiliates and multiple referral agencies to provide skills training opportunities.

Recruiting through Trade Profiles:

To recruit workers, BCIB has moved away from job postings and job descriptions and now uses Trade Profiles. These Trade Profiles were developed to communicate positions and trades that are being recruited for in advance of the actual worker dispatch date, this allows BCIB adequate time to assess, upskill, and recruit candidates. The Prime contractor determines the numbers of positions available and any specialized certification requirements which can vary and change over the life of the project.
