WorkBC Action Plan

British Columbia’s economy is strong, and this is good for all of us – workers, employers, educators, trainers, and government. But with this strength comes major challenges and necessary changes. The changes affecting our province today are unprecedented - the result of four broad trends coming together: an advantaged position in the world marketplace, a growing economy, an aging workforce, and fewer young people entering the job market. These factors have combined to create an increasing shortage of skilled workers across our province. Our challenge is to respond effectively to these changes. Source.
