The annual list of Greater Toronto’s top employers for 2024 has officially been released. And this year’s round up highlights those that have made the change towards improving the quality time their employees have available. Let’s get right into it.

For its 18th annual list, editors at Mediacorp recognized employers that have “exceptional human resources programs and forward-thinking workplace policies.”

Each employer is reviewed on eight factors: Workplace; Work Atmosphere & Social; Health, Financial & Family Benefits; Vacation & Time Off; Employee Communications; Performance Management; Training & Skills Development; and Community Involvement.

According to the release, since the pandemic, employers have hammered down on “how their time is used” which means long commutes or excessive meetings are not as appealing as may have been thought.

“This year’s winners make employees feel their time is valuable, especially when making the commute to work. With perks like free or discounted parking, transit subsidies, and onsite amenities like free snacks and meals, top employers want their employees to feel like coming into work is worth the trip,” said Richard Yerema, executive editor of the Canadas Top 100 Employers project.

“These employers are focused on making their employees’ days enjoyable and the commute worthwhile.”

And to encourage more in-person connection and collaboration, some of these top employers have also revamped or purposely designed their offices “to reflect the work patterns and comforts of home.”

Other efforts include increasing vacation allowance and introducing methods to help employees manage their vacation allowances such as earned-days-off programs, ‘work from anywhere’ programs, and more.
