The Francophone Mobility work permit offers a unique pathway for French-speaking professionals with job offers from Canadian hospitality employers (outside Quebec) to build their careers in Canada. This program is a key initiative aimed at enriching Canada’s cultural landscape by increasing the presence of French speakers across the country.
Mobilité Francophone work permits are issued for the duration of the employment contract and can be renewed. Employers are not required to create a French-speaking or bilingual work environment once the employee is in Canada.
After assessing candidates, you simply extend a job offer, and we handle the rest. This program not only brings top culinary talent to your team but also contributes to Canada’s goal of fostering a vibrant, multilingual workforce.
The Francophone Mobility Program offers a streamlined and efficient hiring process, providing several key advantages for Canadian hospitality employers:
1. Time and Cost Savings: By eliminating the need for the LMIA process, employers save both time and money.
2. Bilingual Capabilities: Ability to serve clients in both French and English, enhancing your service offerings.
3. Market Expansion: The program opens doors to new markets and international networks, boosting your business potential.
