HR Intern – Culture Improvement

The John Howard Society is a social services organization that supports over 25 different programs in Community Living Services, Community Services and Justice Services throughout the Lower Mainland, Fraser Valley, Prince George and the Yukon Territory. As a result of COVID-19 the organization has taken multiple hits from reduced number of employees due to COVID-19 related issues and reduced support to their clients which has had a massive emotional impact on their employees. As part of the organizations strategic plan, improving employee retention and conditions of employment in innovative ways is more vital to their industry more than ever and Interns can help contributing to this in many ways.

I have three major deliverables:
1. Conduct a gap analysis on the organization based on Morneau Shepalls Total Health Assessment
2. Provide a road map on improving our overall score based on the four factors in the total health assessment
3. Achieve majority of deliverables outlined in roadmap created (decided in consultation with the other intern)
