Teck named one of Canada’s Top 100 Employers
Teck Resources has been named as one of Canada’s Top 100 Employers for 2018 by Mediacorp.
Canada’s Top Employers program recognizes companies for exceptional human resources programs and forward-thinking workplace policies.
Editors at Mediacorp, Canada’s largest publisher of employment periodicals, grade employers on eight criteria, including training and skills development, vacation and time-off, and health, financial and family benefits.
“This award is a reflection of our talented and engaged employees whose commitment, enthusiasm and ability is critical to our ongoing success,” said Don Lindsay, President and CEO, Teck. “Teck is focused on building a culture of safety and employee engagement while supporting diversity, innovation and leadership development across our workforce.”
Mediacorp outlined why Teck was selected.
“Teck Resources helps employees plan for the future with a defined contribution pension plan, retirement planning assistance and phased-in work options – retirees may also be eligible for extended health benefits with no age limit, depending on employee group.
“Teck Resources invests in the education of current and future generations, offering tuition subsidies for job-related courses for existing employees and academic scholarship for children of employees (to $1,750 per child).
“Teck Resources maintains an exceptional time-off policy, with most employees receiving 3 weeks of vacation to start, moving to 4 weeks after only three years on the job – and, depending on their role, may be able to take advantage of flexible working arrangements as well as paid personal days off.”
