Labour mobility is a characteristic of the first decade of the 21st century. Individuals, employers, regulators and governments are all involved. In Canada, these efforts are framed by the Pan-Canadian Framework for the Assessment and Recognition of Foreign Qualifications. The framework describes processes to support international labour mobility. It defines benchmarks and service standards related to the recruitment of internationally educated individuals. The framework acknowledges and addresses barriers faced by immigrants to Canada. International labour mobility is one of the strategies being used in the health sector to respond to demands for health services. Various programs and actions have been put in place in the health sector to facilitate international recruitment; these programs and actions are the focus of this paper.
劳动力流动是21世纪第一个十年的一个特征。个人、雇主、监管机构和政府都参与其中。在加拿大,这些努力是由《泛加拿大外国资质评估与认可框架》来界定的。该框架描述了支持国际劳动力流动的流程。它定义了与招聘受过国际教育的人员相关的基准和服务标准。该框架承认并解决了加拿大移民所面临的障碍。国际劳动力流动是卫生部门为应对卫生服务需求而采用的策略之一。卫生部门已经实施了各种计划和行动以促进国际招聘;这些计划和行动是本文的重点。
