There’s no denying that Canada’s working environment continues to evolve. So, the list of the Top 50 Best Workplaces in Canada for 2022 is a helpful little guide to some of the leaders across the country. Released today, the list covers major corporations, ranked on a variety of metrics.

The list comes from Great Place to Work®, which bills itself as the ‘global authority’ on identifying the world’s best workplaces (who woulda guessed?). Each year, it puts out a variety of rankings, ranging from companies with 10-50 employees all the way up to 1,000+. Naturally, we’re going to focus on the big dogs.

In order to qualify for the list, each company has to be ‘Great Place to Work-Certified™’ within the past year. Once that hurdle’s clear, the potential companies are ranked mostly (75%) on confidential employee feedback, with the remaining weight devoted to “quality, quantity and effectiveness of the programs and policies which support their employees and corporate culture”.
