Welcome to Avalon Employment
At Avalon Employment, we believe meaningful work changes lives, strengthens communities, and grows our economy.
Since 1992, Avalon Employment has focused on one simple but powerful goal: helping people build lasting connections to employment. We work alongside individuals, employers, and community partners to turn potential into participation— work is about more than just a job. It's about belonging, purpose, and opportunity.
Our work sits at the intersection of people and the labor market. We support individuals who want to work and employers want to build inclusive, skilled, and stable workplaces. When these two elements come together, grow stronger.
We are proud to be based in Newfoundland and Labrador where community matters. The programs and services we deliver are designed to support real economic development—development that reflects the diversity, creativity, and talent that exists in our province.
Most of all, we are proud of the people we work with every day—individuals who are contributing through employment, employers who are willing to lead differently, and partners who believe that inclusion is not extra work, but better work.
Employment is a powerful equalizer. When you get it right, everyone benefits.
