The 100 Best Workplaces in Canada 2012
One hundred companies are being recognized as the Best Workplaces in Canada. More than 50,000 Canadian employees cast their votes using the Great Place to Work Institute’s “Trust Index.” The Institute found that “regardless of size, industry or the current economic climate, each of these organizations has discovered that trust is the foundation for quality jobs and performance excellence. And the good news is that high-trust relationships require behaviours that can be learned and embedded into any organization’s culture.
The Institute says that organizational leaders who develop a high level of trust with their employees see stronger employee performance, often translating into stronger company performance. The U.S. version of the survey (FORTUNE list) shows that, even in a difficult economy the best companies averaged 295% ROI from 1997-2011!
