Indigenous partnerships built on employment, consent, and shared benefit.
GrizzlyTrek Group Ltd. is the Technical and Indigenous Workforce Partner, with a head office in Calgary and crews placed on industrial projects across Canada. We help owners, EPCs, and contractors meet Indigenous participation requirements through Indigenous workforce, revenue-share partnerships, and participation reporting. We work with First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities and their development corporations, on consent and shared benefit.
Eight Indigenous partnerships on a revenue-share model sit at the centre of this work: a share of revenue from billable work returns to partner communities, and partner names are shared with documented consent. We maintain 5,000+ self-identified Indigenous profiles. Workers deploy fully insured under GrizzlyTrek payroll, and we stand behind a 30-day replacement guarantee on every placement.
Proof for procurement
Revenue-share partnerships
Eight Indigenous partnerships on a revenue-share model. A share of revenue from billable work returns to partner communities.
Indigenous talent depth
We maintain 5,000+ self-identified Indigenous profiles alongside 100,000+ technical resumes in our national database. Candidates are screened, ticket-verified, and field-assessed before they reach your gate.
Participation reporting
Reporting tied to employment, retention, training, and community benefit. We provide the reporting employers need for Indigenous participation commitments.
Retention proof
TRACKS, an Alberta government-funded Indigenous Operator Internship, connects candidates, employers, training, and wage subsidy support on Class 1 and Class 3 driver pathways. The Indigenous Talent Stream converts contract placements to permanent roles when the fit is proven.
Shared Energy, Shared Futures
We are proud to be part of this program's development, an Alberta and Canada-funded tool to recruit and retain Indigenous people in the energy sector. It is the foundation our Indigenous Talent Stream is built on.
Indigenous workforce roles we place
Straight answers.
What are Indigenous participation requirements and how does GrizzlyTrek help meet them?
Indigenous participation requirements are commitments, set by project owners, regulators, or agreements with Indigenous communities, that a defined portion of a project's employment or spend involves Indigenous people and businesses. GrizzlyTrek helps contractors meet them by providing Indigenous workforce drawn from 5,000+ self-identified Indigenous profiles, together with the reporting those commitments require. Eight Indigenous partnerships on a revenue-share model connect that employment to community benefit.
How does the revenue-share model work?
Crews placed on industrial projects generate revenue, and an agreed share flows back to our Indigenous partner communities. The share is tied to billable work, so community benefit grows with real employment. Reporting to partners covers employment, retention, training, and community benefit.
Can GrizzlyTrek partnerships be referenced in bids and proposals?
Yes, with documented consent. We do not use community names, images, or relationships without permission, so partner names are shared only when that consent is in place. Our business development team can arrange references for a specific bid or Indigenous participation plan.
How is Indigenous employment reported?
We track and report employment, retention, training, and community benefit, matched to the format your participation commitments require. Profiles are self-identified, and we provide the reporting employers need for Indigenous participation commitments. TRACKS and the Indigenous Talent Stream back retention, so reported employment reflects people who stay on the job.
