Good companies attract quality people, so it’s no surprise that our staff includes some of the best in the business. We appreciate our employees and make a conscious, focused and determined effort to respect, support, and encourage them as true partners in our shared success.

Our progressive workplace practices have been recognized locally and nationally. We have been named Canada’s Top 100 Employers three years running, and recently were named one of the Top 15 Employers in Manitoba for 2008. Also this year, we received the gold award for Excellence in Leadership from The Human Resources Management Association of Manitoba.

More importantly our workplace practices make for happier, healthier employees.

We strive to provide a safe and respectful workplace, fair pay, opportunities for personal and professional growth, and flexible work options that encourage work-life balance. In keeping with our commitment to the principles of diversity and employment equity we actively recruit people with diverse backgrounds, experiences and perspectives that reflect the communities in which we live and work. And we give our employees plenty of encouragement to find their niche within our organization.

Here are two stories that illustrate these commitments in action.

• Iona Gruskin finds a new career opportunity as a result of our merger.
• Six Argyle Alternative School students get work experience and training through ACU
