The Different Work Permits Available In Canada
Depending on your qualifications and occupation your job may fall under two different categories of work permits: the Open Work Permit and the Employer Specific Work Permit.
Open Work Permit

An open work permit is issued by the Immigration Office to immigrants who wish to work for any employer for a certain amount of time.

There are two subcategories for Open Work Permits (OWP), Unrestricted and Restricted Permits. The main difference between the two is that Unrestricted Permits allow you to work in any occupation and location, while the Restricted does not. The Restricted Permit allows you to work in a specific job and thus does give you as much freedom of movement to work in different areas of Canada.

What Visa Programs Use Open Work Permits?

Some of the types of work permits Canada considers to be OWP:

Temporary Work Permits for Spouses or Partners;
Post Graduation Work Permit;
Temporary Resident Permit;
World Youth Program Permit;
Atlantic Immigration Pilot Program Spousal Permit;
Regular Open Work Permit; and
Bridging Open Work Permit


Employer-Specific Work Permit

The employer-specific Canadian work permit is issued to foreign nationals who have received a job offer from a Canadian employer. This type of work permit is tied to the employer and the job that was offered. It means that if the foreign national wants to change their employer or job, they will need to apply for a new work permit.
