DESCRIPTION: Every culture has its own norms, including workplace culture. In a Canadian workplace, communication and behavior may be different than your previous workplaces.

- Expectations and roles of employees
- Be punctual (be prepared to start on time)
- Know your roles and responsibilities
- Fulfill your duties and responsibilities
- Work both independently and as a team member
- Show initiative
- Make suggestions and ask questions
- Be able to work well with others (teamwork)
- Individualism and self-reliance

Canadian culture can be highly individualistic. Therefore, you may encounter:

- Independent decision-making rather than group consultation
- Rules and procedures that are emphasized more than relationships
- Looser and less permanent relationships between people, compared to other cultures
- Performance assessment on an individual basis, rather than as team member
- Direct praise and criticism

Work and time: The Canadian approach to work and time may be unfamiliar to you....
