Quebec launches program to address early childhood services labour shortage

The Quebec government is launching its JeTravaille platform, a new operation to bolster a worker shortage affecting daycare centres across the province.
Centres can sign up to the platform and post job openings. There are more than 1,300 positions available on the platform, according to a press release. Families Minister Mathieu Lacombe and Labour Minister Jean Boulet made the announcement Wednesday.
Lacombe is adamant about offering quality childcare services to Quebec families. The province is going through a serious labour shortage, he explained, and the pandemic has put an even greater strain on the childcare services industry.
“The needs are great in all regions of Quebec. If you would like to contribute to the development of our toddlers, go to the site and apply, whether you are qualified or not,” said Lacombe.
