When it comes to employment, having the perfect balance between work and family commitments is important. And finding those employers that will help their staff find that balance is a plus. The annual Canada’s Top Family-Friendly Employers list is out and they’ve revealed those companies that are leaders in doing just that. Oh, and they’re hiring too.
According to the Canada’s Top 100 Employers project, this is one of its longest-running competitions. The list “recognizes the employers that do the most to help their employees balance work and family obligations.”
How are they picked? Editors of Canada’s Top 100 Employers evaluate each employer based on the programs and initiatives they have to help employees balance work and family commitments, according to organizers.
