  • Enjoy a comprehensive benefits package, including a municipal pension plan, and psychological health & safety programs and holistic wellness resources.
  • Annual statutory holidays (13) with generous vacation entitlement and accrual.
  • PHSA is a remote work-friendly employer, welcoming flexible work options to support our people (eligibility may vary, depending on position).
