OUR SERVICES

Andrii and Katya

Working Gear provides industry appropriate clothing free of charge to help individuals enter the workforce in the Lower Mainland. Whether it’s a suit for an interview or construction clothing and steel-toed boots for a job in the trades, Working Gear supports clients to find the clothing (and confidence) they need to find paid employment.

Working Gear also runs a barbershop and provides hair services onsite for clients to assist in preparing them to become work ready, build their self-worth, and reduce societal stigma they may face. We serve clients in our shop by appointment only. To be eligible for an appointment, clients must be approved through one of our referral agencies. You can find a list of our referral agencies here.

BOOKING AGENCIES

Working Gear’s services are for individuals returning to work in the Lower Mainland.

A big thank you to all our referral agencies who partner and collaborate with us to support our clients to find the clothing (and confidence) they need to secure paid employment.

As an organization, we are committed to supporting our Indigenous clients, community members and neighbours through our services, and we remain focused on embodying the principles of anti-racism and decolonization in all that we do.
