01
Employment
Local hiring on projects crossing traditional territory, backed by in-house training programs for drillers, blasters, operators and mechanics.
Community Engagement
Working With First Nations
Our Approach
Working on traditional territory
Consbec works across the traditional territories of many First Nations. Most of our projects sit on or near those lands, and how we operate there matters as much as how we drill and blast.
Consbec has been a northern contractor since 1982. Our people live in these regions, and the relationships we build outlast any single contract.
How We Work
Four commitments
02
Contracting
Working with Indigenous-owned businesses and joint ventures as partners and sub-contractors.
03
Agreements & Training
Participation agreements that set out training commitments and project benefits before work starts, not after.
04
Long-term Relationships
Northern Ontario is home. We expect to be working alongside the same communities on the next project, and the one after that.
