Compliance with Unpaid Internship Standards

This internship fully complies with Canadian federal and provincial guidelines for unpaid internships, as recommended by CACEE and related frameworks. Specifically:

• The internship is designed for the benefit of the intern, providing structured supervision and clearly defined learning outcomes.

• Avolta derives minimal direct benefit during the training process, as the focus is on experiential education.

• The intern does not displace employees and is not entitled to a paid role upon conclusion of the internship.

• The skills and experience gained are transferable to a wide range of future employment opportunities in training, HR, and organizational development.

• The internship is offered for a defined period of time and includes regular professional mentoring.

In addition, this internship is compliant with the Canada Labour Code (federal labour standards) regarding unpaid student internships. As stated under federal law, “If you are a student intern, the Canada Labour Code does not require that you be paid and the activities you perform for an employer are not considered to be work.” Accordingly, this internship is unpaid by design and focused entirely on training and education.

From time to time, Avolta may choose to provide support such as a stipend, allowance, or reimbursement for expenses, but these are not connected to the activities performed during the internship.
