Expression of Interest – Labour Standards Board

Press Release

March 24, 2025

The Department of Justice is looking for an enthusiastic individual to serve on the Labour Standards Board.

The Board is established under the Labour Standards Act and handles appeals brought by employees and employers regarding decisions made by the Labour Standards Compliance Office.

Applicants should have experience in labour relations, business or administrative decision-making. Oral and written fluency in English is essential, as membership requires extensive reading, comprehension of legal issues, and the ability to review and write clear and concise decisions. Fluency in Inuktut and/or French is an asset.

Members should be prepared to commit 5 to 15 hours per quarter to reviewing appeals, writing decisions, and conducting hearings – most of which will be done remotely. Training will be provided, and members will receive an honorarium for their service.

To apply, submit a cover letter, resume, and criminal record check to nlsb@gov.nu.ca by April 11, 2025.

For more information, contact the Nunavut Labour Standards Board at nlsb@gov.nu.ca or 867-975-6371.
