George Brown named one of Canada’s Top 100 Employers for second year

October 2009

George Brown has once again joined an elite group of organizations to be named Canada’s Top 100 Employers.

This is the second year in a row that a blue-ribbon panel of employment experts took a look at college organizational practices and policies and ranked it among the best places in the nation to work.

That’s no small accomplishment – George Brown was selected from among more than 16,000 organizations across the country that applied for the honour!

 The panel was impressed by the array of benefits available to employees including maternity and parental leave top-ups, flexible work options, and generous vacations.

More information on our employer review is available in the issue of Maclean’s Magazine currently on newsstands, today’s (Oct. 9) Globe and Mail, and also at http://www.eluta.ca/top-employer-george-brown-college-of-applied-arts-and-technology.  

Canada’s Top 100 Employers is a national competition, now in its 10th year, organized by Mediacorp Canada Inc. and sponsored by Eluta.ca - a job search website - in which an advisory panel decides which self-nominated organizations offer exceptional workplaces. The board reviews work atmosphere and social, health, financial and family benefits, vacation and time off, employee communications, performance management and training and skills development and physical workplace.

“I’m certain this recognition comes as no surprise to employees – we already know George Brown is a great place to work – but it’s a welcome external validation of our policies and practices as a college, “ says President Anne Sado.
