Lizz introduced our speaker, Neely Hazell who works for Fraser Works Co-Op, the New Westminster WorkBC Employment Centre, which is conveniently located between the Union Jack Public House and private Liquor Store on 7th Street between the Royal City Centre Mall and Belmont Street. 
Neely is the Community Relations Coordinator at Fraser Works Co-Op.
Fraser Works Co-op is New Westminster’s one and only WorkBC Employment Services Centre. WorkBC Employment Services Centres are funded by the Government of Canada and the Province of British Columbia to deliver the Employment Program of British Columbia (EPBC). If you live outside of the New Westminster catchment area, you can find your local WorkBC Employment Services Centre by visiting www.WorkBCCentres.ca. If you are a Burnaby resident, check out Fraser Works Co-op in Burnaby.

The EPBC, delivered by Fraser Works Co-op, offers no cost employment services, programs, information, and supports to all New Westminster residents seeking employment. The purpose of delivering the EPBC is to aid job seekers in obtaining employment as fast as possible. At Fraser Works Co-op, we aim to get job seekers connected to the labour market, ensure clients receive appropriate employment services in alignment with current labour market information, and make certain that labour market services are in accordance with the needs and opportunities presented by New Westminster and local employers. Fraser Works Co-op annually composes a Community and Employer Partnerships Plan in order to best address the needs of New Westminster, offer exceptional programs and services, and connect job seekers to the labour market. If it is training,financial supports, job development, apprenticeship training, self employment, or job search support you are seeking, Fraser Works Co-op may be your solution!
