(September 15, 2025 – Toronto, Canada) Kinectrics, a division of BWX Technologies Inc., has achieved Bronze certification in the Partnership Accreditation in Indigenous Relations (PAIR) program from the Canadian Council for Indigenous Business (CCIB).
This accreditation highlights Kinectrics’ commitment to maintaining strong relationships with the Indigenous communities we operate in and is another step forward in our vision to integrate the four principals of the program into our ongoing operations. This includes Indigenous related Leadership Actions, Employment Initiatives, Business Development, and Community Relationships.
Kinectrics has proudly been a member of the CCIB since 2015 and has directly supported the Indigenous communities it operates in, while carrying out a wide range of actions to achieve the Bronze certification. The PAIR program, formerly called Progressive Aboriginal Relations (PAR), was launched in 2001 and is rooted in principles that contribute to cultural awareness, equitable employment practices, relationship-building and meaningful consultation.
I am incredibly proud of the efforts from all our employees to achieve this certification. This milestone demonstrates our ongoing commitment to maintaining positive, respectful, and mutually beneficial relationships with Indigenous communities. We remain focused on our approach of building meaningful jobs, removing barriers, and creating an inclusive, supportive environment for Indigenous people.
PAIR certification offers a tangible and measurable pathway toward integrating Indigenous economic reconciliation throughout business. Certified companies demonstrate leadership by embedding Indigenous inclusion in their workforce, business practices, and partnerships. Their efforts contribute to building a stronger, more equitable and inclusive future for Canada.
