City Chosen as One of Saskatchewan’s Top Employers For 2016
The City is starting off 2016 on a high note by making a positive stride toward our Strategic Goal of a Culture of Continuous Improvement. For the fifth year in a row, the City has been selected as one of Saskatchewan’s 2016 Top Employers. The competition recognizes leading employers which offer exceptional places to work.
“Being named a Saskatchewan Top Employer for five years in a row is an outstanding achievement” says Catherine Gryba, General Manager of Corporate Performance. “We make conscious efforts to continuously enhance our workplace culture.”
The City of Saskatoon was evaluated on eight criteria, the same used for the Canada Top 100 Employer’s competition:
- Physical Workplace
- Work Atmosphere & Communications
- Financial Benefits & Compensation
- Health & Family-Friendly Benefits
- Vacation & Personal Time Off
- Employee Engagement
- Training & Skills Development
- Community Involvement
Employers are compared with other organizations in their field to determine which ones offer the most progressive and forward-thinking programs.
“This achievement would not be possible without the hard work of City staff,” Gryba says. “Our employees are our greatest asset.”
Saskatchewan’s Top Employers 2016 are highlighted in the February 3, 2016 editions of the Saskatoon StarPhoenix and Regina Leader-Post.
