Important messages

We are committed to providing an inclusive and barrier-free work environment, starting with the hiring process. If you need to be accommodated during any phase of the evaluation process, please use the Contact information below to request specialized accommodation. All information received in relation to accommodation will be kept confidential.

When you apply to this selection process, you are not applying for a specific job, but to an inventory for future vacancies. As positions become available, applicants who meet the qualifications may be contacted for further assessment.

INDETERMINATE DEFINITION
Permanent (Full Time) positions. These positions involve shift work; shifts vary by institution.

With more than 20,000 employees, Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) plays a key role in contributing to public safety, 24 hours a day and 7 days a week, at our 43 correctional institutions, 91 parole offices and 14 community correctional centres across Canada. Join us to help change lives and protect Canadians

Primary Workers/Kimisinaws* (CX-02) play a vital role as the first line of contact for offenders. They handle both security tasks and case management. They carry a caseload of two to four offenders, listen and respond to offenders' concerns, document information and events, participate in case conferences for decision-making and prepare a variety of reports and recommendations.

*A Primary Worker at a women's institution is comparable to a Correctional Officer II (CX-02) at a men's institution. The Kimisinaw (Cree word for older sister) is a Primary Worker that works specifically at the Okimaw Ohci Healing Lodge for women offenders.

The Correctional Service of Canada is seeking interest from persons looking for an exciting and rewarding career as a Primary Worker/Kimisinaw in a women's institution or healing lodge. This role is similar to that of a Correctional Officer I in a men's institution but comes with a higher classification and added case management responsibilities.

We also strongly encourage you to apply for the position of Correctional Officer I.

REAPPLICATION
If you are currently participating in a Primary Worker/Kimisinaw selection process (actively being evaluated or have applied and are waiting for evaluation at any stage) you do not need to re-apply to this Primary Worker/Kimisinaw selection process.

If you previously participated in a Primary Worker/Kimisinaw selection process your previous results may apply and will be confirmed during the assessment stage of the selection process. Please refer to your result letter as waiting periods for reassessment will be applied.

If you have also applied or are thinking of applying for Correctional Officer I and/or Correctional Officer II - Healing Lodges, please note that some parts of the assessment process (like medical evaluation, security clearance, psychological assessment) are the same for all three selection processes; as such the results and related waiting periods would also apply to those selection processes.

For this selection process, the CSC will communicate with you by email. You must provide a valid email address to which you wish to receive communication regarding this staffing process. You must ensure that you check your email account including spam, promotion or other folders regularly as there may be a deadline for responses. If you respond past the deadline, you risk being removed from the selection process. Please notify us of any updates to your contact information as required.
