Human Resource Services

Human Resource Services is responsible for providing support and services to over 2,100 employees who work to provide a Catholic education for our students and communities. As a Catholic organization, Human Resources Services aims to achieve a working environment that respects the dignity and worth of every person while maintaining fair and just compensation for employees.

  • Long-term disability
  • Criminal background checks
  • Collective agreement administration
