Â鶹´«Ã½

On November 6, Grade 9 students across Canada will have the opportunity to participate in . This annual event provides students with the opportunity to witness the world of work firsthand, prompting early career planning, and enabling students to make informed decisions about their future goals and endeavours.

While Â鶹´«Ã½ does not formally participate in this program, we are supportive of this initiative. We are aware that some faculty and staff members will bring their Grade 9 children to work on this day.

Human Resources would like to provide you with some general tips if you are planning on bringing your child to work:

• Any employee looking to bring a dependent to work with them as part of a school organized Take Our Kids To Work Day initiative should receive approval in advance from their supervisor and Department Head.
• Please note that approval cannot be provided in circumstances where:
  • The student would be exposed to conditions which could present a safety risk.
  • The student’s presence would jeopardize requirements around confidentiality.
  • The student’s presence would unreasonably impact the operations of the university.

Self-guided tour information is available if you would like to review it and provide a tour of your unit or area.

If your faculty or unit is planning an event for the day, please let us know so that we can help promote it by contacting employee.relations@dal.ca.

If you have any further questions, please contact Employee Relations at employee.relations@dal.ca
