Firms evaluated on 8 elements including culture, recognition, professional growth
Fifty employers across Canada were recognized for their leadership and innovation in engaging their employees as part of the 50 Most Engaged Workplaces in Canada list by I Love Rewards.
“More employers are realizing that the most successful organizations are those that invest in employee engagement,” said Razor Suleman, CEO and founder of I Love Rewards. “We’re thrilled to honour those companies that are truly committed to creating positive, thriving work environments. These companies understand that their employees are their greatest asset and are leading by example as they revolutionize the workplace.”
Applicants were evaluated on how they measured up to other organizations based on eight elements of employee engagement: communication, leadership, culture, rewards and recognition, professional and personal growth, accountability and performance, vision and values, and corporate social responsibility.
