Labour Market Survey
We want to hear from you. ʔakisq̓nuk First Nation is conducting a Member Survey to better understand our community's needs around employment, training, and workforce opportunities. Your input will not only guide our Chief and Council in making informed decisions but also strengthen the training and employment opportunities aligned with our governance policies.
The survey addresses key areas such as education, employment status, the challenges you face in finding work, and the types of support that would benefit you most. Please know that your responses will remain confidential.
Everyone who completes the survey will be entered into a draw for one of three prizes. The survey closes on September 15, so make sure to submit yours before then.
Thank you for taking the time to participate; your voice matters in our engagement events.
