Hemmera Named One of British Columbia’s Top Employers of 2016
BCEIA Member recognized as one of the province’s most exceptional places to work
February 9, 2016 – Hemmera is thrilled to announce that their firm has been recognized by Mediacorp Canada Inc. as one of BC’s Top 100 Employers of 2016. This annual, high-profile competition recognizes the nation’s best places to work – companies that lead their industries in attracting and retaining employees.
“We are very excited to celebrate this milestone achievement,” says Paul Hemsley, Hemmera President and founder. “It is an honour to be considered a top employer in British Columbia. Most importantly, I am thankful to all of our employees across Canada for continuing to grow, learn, and live through The Hemmera Way, everyday“.
Hemmera’s unique culture is defined by The Hemmera Way – a collective way of thinking that defines our behaviours, actions, attitudes, and approach to everything we do. The Hemmera Way differentiates us from our competitors by the way we practice Hemmera’s collective values of being people-based, business focused, and values driven while delivering performance excellence to our clients and projects.
This year’s BC winners were evaluated by the editors of Canada’s Top 100 Employers using the same eight criteria as the national competition: Physical Workplace; Work Atmosphere and Social; Health, Financial and Family Benefits; Vacation and Time Off; Employee Communications; Performance Management; Training and Skills Development; and Community Involvement. Employers are compared to other organizations in their field to determine which firm offers the most progressive and forward-thinking programs. Hemmera’s external and internal training opportunities, financial bonuses for accreditations, vacation and timeoff policies, and referral bonuses for supporting recruitment are just a few reasons why we were selected as a BC Top Employer.
