about Alberta Works
The goal of Alberta Works is to help unemployed people
find and keep jobs in their communities, help low-income
Albertans cover their basic costs of living, and help
employers meet their need for skilled workers. Alberta
Works brings together employment and training services,
income support, health benefits and child support services
to better help Albertans. Adults with a permanent disability
that severely impairs their ability to earn a livelihood
may be eligible to receive assistance through a separate
program called Assured
Income for the Severely Handicapped (AISH). Different people have different needs. That's
why Alberta Works includes a number of different ways
to help.
