The Social Security Agreement Advisor works within the team of the Social Security Agreement Office (BESS). The BESS acts as a liaison organization for the implementation of social security reciprocity agreements concluded or to be concluded with foreign governments. We thus help workers obtain a certificate of liability for work abroad, coordinate procedures aimed at obtaining a benefit from a foreign country, verify if a person can receive a benefit from the Régime des rentes du Québec after working abroad and communicate with the organizations responsible for an agreement.

The BESS team is mainly based in Montreal, but you could perform your work in our office in Quebec. Here, collaboration will become your fuel! Partnership relationships will be part of your daily routine.
