Thanks to the hard work and dedication from our clients and consultants here at Policy Forward, we were able to achieve an incredible milestone this year that we are so happy to share.

🎊 Earlier this year, we supported several small businesses and non-profits with the Canada Summer Jobs grant application, and we successfully secured over $150,000 for our clients! 🎊

If you need funding for your business, we can help. Our consultants have an in-depth knowledge of the Canada Summer Jobs program and can guide you through the process from completing the initial application to managing post-approval activities. Get in touch!

Find jobs for youth (15 and 30 years of age)!

➡️ www.jobbank.gc.ca/youth

Canada Summer Jobs is a government program that helps employers create jobs for young Canadians across the country.

What’s in it for you:

✅ Full-time or part-time work in Canada, for a minimum of 6 weeks.
✅ An inclusive and non-discriminatory work environment.
✅ Support for learning and skills development.

These jobs are posted on Job Bank for a limited time to help more young people find them. New jobs will be added regularly as they are approved for funding by the Canada Summer Jobs program.

To apply, you must be:

✅ Between 15 and 30 years of age.
✅ Legally entitled to work in Canada (which means you must have a valid Social Insurance Number).

This is your chance to gain experience and put your skills to use to help your community. Don’t miss out!

Did you know Ontario employers are required by law to have certain workplace policies in place?
Navigating writing and implementing these important policies can be difficult, but we can help! 

The policies that employers must have include the following:

1. Workplace Health and Safety Policy;
2. Workplace Violence and Harassment Policy;
3. Accessibility Policy; and
4. Pay Equity Plan (employers with 10 or more employees).

Additionally, failure to have these policies in place is a violation of Ontario law and may result in the imposition of statutory fines and penalties.

We also recommend employers have additional policies to support and protect their employees. Some examples are: 
* Equal opportunity and non-discrimination-policy 
* Training/orientation policy 
* Employee code of conduct policy 
* Attendance policies
* Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies
* Employee face mask policy (during COVID-19)

These policies not only help employers ensure professional and safe-conduct, but also establish internal rules and processes that, if followed, will help create a dynamic work environment. 

We recognize that small or start-up organizations are either unaware of their legal obligation to have policies in place or simply do not know where to start when it comes to drafting and implementing policies, that's why we offer consultations and services such as regulatory compliance and policy development. For more information, visit our website or reach out to us.

Lucas joined the Policy Forward team with the hopes of gathering relevant policy research and analysis experience to develop his professional skills, and to be part of a closely knit and driven team of policy consultants seeking to provide services to emerging and reforming businesses.

"My time spent as a student volunteer with Policy Forward Consulting Group may be best explained as both enjoyable and enlightening. The constructive but laid back environment created by the small group of consultants enabled me to flourish as a new policy professional, as I felt comfortable approaching the team with questions and felt supported in my endeavors. Team members were always willing to lend a helping hand, but also encouraged me to step out of my comfort zone and undertake new, and challenging tasks. The duties entrusted to me provided an excellent opportunity to begin to develop vital policy skills, including research, analysis, and advising, which in turn contributed to my success in postgraduate studies in public policy and administration, and eventually to acquire a position as a program development and analysis officer with the Ontario Public Service. Overall, I am greatly appreciative of my time with the firm and think back fondly of my experience as a Policy Forward team member."

The key to a successful organization or business is its operational policies.

Operational policies are statements of expectations for the day-to-day operations and guidelines within which all members can work under.

We'll work with you to assess the gaps and develop mandatory operational policies and procedures.

Are you interested in starting a new business or revamping your policy and procedural documents? We are here to help! 

Did you know an employer is obligated to inform staff about organization policies and their rights and responsibilities while within the workplace. An employee handbook helps you streamline your internal operations. It helps you communicate better with your staff. 

We will customize and brand an employee handbook, including organization policies, procedures, working conditions, employee expectations and more!

Responsible policy leadership reflects public needs and influences every aspect of life.

As we take on new policy issues, it is now more than ever we need to think critically about our policies. I am so grateful to join the Policy Forward team as a Student Volunteer. So far, the consultant team has exposed me to the importance of community building, governance and leadership in a policy context.

Farah is working towards a Masters of Public Administration at Queen’s University. Her research interests are centred around anti-racism, international affairs and defence policy.
