Work environment

Transport Canada is responsible for transportation policies and programs. We promote safe, secure, efficient and environmentally responsible transportation.

Understanding that the higher upfront purchase cost of zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) can make it more difficult to adopt this clean technology, the Incentives for Zero-Emission Vehicles (iZEV) Program can help to make it more affordable. As an Administrative Support Assistant, you will be directly involved in the delivery of the iZEV program, including:

- Responding to requests for information
- Applying program guidelines when processing claims submitted by dealerships
- Finding solutions to routine problems
- Following up on documentation required for claim processing

• Selection board members are diverse
• Selection board members are trained on unconscious bias via Canada School of Public Service COR120 - Inclusive Hiring Practices for a Diverse Workforce
