Recruitment Fraud Warning

Please be aware that Alberta Health Services (AHS) never requests fees or directly hires applicants without a screening process. These are not AHS job offers and are fraudulent. If you receive a job offer that involves the payment of fees or offers free food and accommodation, it is a scam and you are asked to contact: securityincident@ahs.ca.

Signs of Recruitment Fraud

• AHS emails always end in “@albertahealthservices.ca, @ahs.ca, or @recruithealthab.ca”
• Any message styled to look like it was sent from an Alberta hospital or facility using a different format is not authentic.
• Contact information in the form of a mobile phone number or an address outside of Alberta is not an AHS office.
• You are instructed to pay money to secure employment.
• There is an insistence on urgency and repeated contact from the sender.

What should I do?

If you receive this type of email, please treat the message as fraudulent and forward it to AHS at securityincident@ahs.ca. Please include the message you received from the sender in your email.
