New Westminster, British Columbia
Dental staffing in New Westminster
Cover an open chair from the smallest municipality with the widest reach, or work from the best-placed base in the region. Two SkyTrain lines and four bridges put a New West practice inside the travel radius of five neighbouring cities at once.
Who is in range
Small city, unusually wide catchment
Most municipalities have one or two convenient ways in. New Westminster has more than anywhere else in the metro: two SkyTrain lines through it, four road bridges within reach, and a position on the Fraser that puts it roughly equidistant from Burnaby, Surrey, Coquitlam and Richmond.
Because we match on the trip a professional would genuinely make, that geography turns directly into reach. A shift here lands in more feeds than a shift posted from a larger municipality further out.

For New Westminster practices
Use the position you have
A catchment out of proportion to your size
Your shift falls inside the radius of professionals across five neighbouring municipalities, because getting to New Westminster is easy from almost all of them.
Two lines, both of them useful
The Expo Line runs through downtown and Sapperton. Being close to a station is the strongest single signal you can put in a post.
Compliance sits with us on temp
Registration confirmed, insurance carried, payroll run. The professional is our employee on temp and locum bookings, and you get one invoice.
Ask when someone fits
A few days shows both of you what an interview cannot. If you want to keep somebody, we will ask them, and a good number of temps would rather keep temping. A placement fee applies on conversion, quoted up front.
Downtown and the Quay
On the Expo Line and by the river. The most reachable part of the city and a good bet for short-notice cover.
Uptown
The commercial centre up the hill, well served by bus and a short ride from the station.
Sapperton
Around the hospital precinct and its own station, with practices that draw patients from well beyond the city.
Queensborough
On Lulu Island, across a bridge from the rest of New Westminster and closer to Richmond in practice. Worth naming specifically.
Where you sit
Almost nothing in the metro is far from here
Look at the region as a whole and New Westminster sits close to the middle of it. That is why professionals based here can take work in half a dozen municipalities without a long commute, and why offices here compete for a pool that is much larger than the city’s own population would suggest.
It is a genuine structural advantage, and the main thing to do with it is post early enough for people to plan around.

For New Westminster professionals
A wide radius costs you almost nothing here
The best base in the metro
Burnaby, Surrey, Coquitlam and central Vancouver are all reachable from here without a car. A wide radius costs you very little.
Variety without the driving
Work a different practice each day of the week if that suits you, and let the shifts come to you rather than working down a list.
One tax form at the end of it
However many offices you work, every shift runs through WORKFORCE and lands on a single T4.
Offices you can trust
Practices are vetted before they can post and rated after every shift. The ones that treat professionals poorly lose access.

New Westminster staffing questions
Why is New Westminster easier to cover than its size suggests?
Position. It sits in the geographic middle of the metro with two SkyTrain lines running through it and four road bridges within reach, so a New West office falls inside the travel radius of professionals living in Burnaby, Surrey, Coquitlam, Richmond and Vancouver at once. Small municipality, unusually wide catchment. We still do not publish fill rates or times for any market.
How should I post a New Westminster shift?
Name your neighbourhood and your nearest station. Downtown, Uptown, Sapperton, Queensborough and the West End all read differently to someone planning a trip, and Queensborough in particular is across a bridge from the rest of the city, which matters more than the short distance implies.
Who employs the temp professional in my New Westminster office?
We do, on temp and locum bookings. We confirm registration in good standing with the BC College of Oral Health Professionals, carry the insurance and run payroll, and you receive one invoice at an all-in hourly rate. On a permanent hire your practice becomes the employer and runs its own registration checks and references.
Can you cover same-day callouts here?
This is one of the better places in the metro to try. Because so many professionals pass through or live within a short ride of New Westminster, a shift posted the moment you know reaches a wide group quickly. That is a structural advantage rather than a promise, and we do not publish fill times.
I live in New Westminster. Is it a good base for temp work?
It is one of the best in the region. From here you can reach Burnaby, Surrey, Coquitlam and central Vancouver without a car, which means a wide radius costs you very little. Set the days you want and how far you will travel, and the variety comes to you.
What does WORKFORCE charge a New Westminster practice?
Temp is one all-in hourly rate covering pay, payroll, remittances and insurance, so nothing is added afterwards. Permanent placement carries a fee on conversion, quoted up front before you commit and priced competitively against a recruiter. We are an agency and we charge agency fees.
