- Direct hire labour workforce
- Subcontract local service providers
- Support social programs and community events
TAHK Projects continues to invest in our Indigenous and Local Development Program in order to foster sustainable relationships with our partners. Our program has resulted in many projects successfully completed with the support of Indigenous contractors and employees.
