Phishing alert

It has come to our attention that some organizations are falsely claiming to accept applications on behalf of the Royal Ottawa Health Care Group (The Royal). The Royal, or any authorized organization that recruits for us, will never ask for money from you to review our job postings, to apply for a job, obtaining work permits or visas, or for special courses.

Accommodation and accessibility

The Royal Ottawa Health Care Group is committed to being an accessible workplace, which includes preventing, identifying, and removing barriers that impede an individual’s ability to work here. Requests for accommodation can be made at any stage of the recruitment process.

Vaccinations

Please note:  All applicants for any vacancies at The Royal must be fully vaccinated to be considered for any positions.  Any new hires, prior to their first day of employment, will be required to provide proof that that have been fully vaccinated, or present supporting documentation of a valid exemption in accordance with the Ontario Human Rights Code.
