The Mining Association of British Columbia
Procon is participating in the BC Mineral Exploration and Mining Sector Labour Shortage Task Force. The Task Force’s purpose is to research, plan and develop a sector-wide human resource and labour force strategy that can be implemented by the industry, government, career information and employment service providers, educational institutions and other training providers.
The vision for this Strategy is a growing, vibrant and safe British Columbia mineral exploration and mining industry, with an engaged and highly skilled workforce, a responsive education and training system and HR strategies and practices to match labour demand. This Strategy not only benefits the overall strength of the industry, but it also supports the on-going and increased contribution that the BC mineral exploration and mining sector will make to the economy, community, cultural and social health and prosperity of the province.
