Agricultural Employment Pilot Project

Are you a primary producer, food processor or agri-business located in Saskatchewan?
 
To address the shortage of workers in agriculture, the Canadian Agricultural Human Resources Council has implemented a pilot project with the Saskatchewan Abilities Council to match job seekers and ag employers through their Partners in Employment Offices in Saskatoon, Regina, Yorkton and Swift Current. The project is focused on finding jobs for people who are currently underrepresented in the agriculture workforce, specifically people with varying abilities. A dedicated Agricultural Employment Coordinator has been hired to oversee the project.
 
Partners in Employment provides supported employment for all job seekers and employers at no charge.

We are taking students out to southern Manitoba to Hespler Farms! Farmer Wayne will teach students how he plants and cares for his potato crop and why potatoes are such a unique crop to grow. Teachers, check out your AITC Dashboard for Math'd Potatoes, a potato-themed classroom resource to pair with this tour video. Thank you to Peak of the Market and Penner Farm Services for making this event possible.
