HR Administrative Assistant FT Perm 25-05+

UCN acknowledges that we are on the traditional territories
and homelands of many Indigenous peoples, in particular
the Cree, Dene, Red River Métis, and Oji-Cree. Indigenous
peoples have continuously maintained homelands in
northern Manitoba since time immemorial. The First Nations
in the area that UCN serves entered into treaty relationships
with the Crown (within our region these include signatories
to treaties 4, 5 - and the treaty 5 adhesion, and treaty 6 -
located within the treaty 5 adhesion). The territory has also
become home to other Indigenous peoples. We uphold the
treaties and collaborate with all Indigenous peoples to share
truth, reconciliation, and learning.
