Employment resources for tenants
Are you looking for work or need help with your job search?

TESS offices are open to all Toronto residents and their staff provide a range of services including helping people with:
- finding a job or the training they need to find work
- accessing financial benefits available through the Ontario Works program
- connecting to health, housing, childcare and other social services
