GCcoworking: Flexible alternative workplaces for Government of Canada employees

Backgrounder

The GCcoworking pilot project

Public Services and Procurement Canada (PSPC) remains committed to establishing flexible and accessible workplaces that accommodate the hybrid work model adopted by the federal public service.

PSPC has delivered an innovative multi-year pilot project to provide alternative work locations for federal employees in the National Capital Region (NCR) and other regions across Canada. Employees from participating departments and agencies can use the GCcoworking sites as temporary workspaces when teleworking. They are alternative workspaces for registered users.

These sites have been designed as activity-based workplaces, with individual and collaborative workpoints, to promote collaboration, innovation and productivity.

Each site is equipped with modern tools and technology, such as Wi-Fi and video-conferencing services, for increased efficiency. The workspaces are also fully accessible, providing amenities such as electric height-adjustable desks, power doors and tactile signage.
