"Work" is defined by the Government of Canada Regulations as an activity for which wages are paid or commission is earned, or that competes directly with activities of Canadian citizens or permanent residents in the Canadian labor market.

A foreign national coming to work in Canada, such as those holding an academic appointment, will require a Work permit, unless exempted.

There are two different programs for a temporary foreign worker coming to Canada:

1. The Temporary Foreign Worker Program (TFWP)
2. The International Mobility Program (IMP)
