Background
Now in its 14th year, Atlantic Canada's Top Employers is an annual
competition organized by the editors of Canada's Top 100 Employers.
This special designation recognizes the employers in Canada's four Atlantic provinces
that lead their industries in offering exceptional places to work. It's a unique
project at Mediacorp because this competition extends across four provinces –
the only one of its kind – as we recognize that many employers in Atlantic
Canada have operations across the region. This list replaces our previous Top Employers in the Maritimes and New Brunswick's Top Employers projects, which were published until 2006
and 2008, respectively. This year's winners were announced on January 17, 2023. Read
the
press release,
issued January 17, 2023, for more background on this year's competition.
Halifax Regional Municipality provides
employees with in-house wellness programming
on a wide variety of healthcare topics.
Selection Process
Employers are evaluated by the editors of Canada's Top 100 Employers using the same eight
criteria as the national competition: (1) Workplace; (2) Work Atmosphere & Social;
(3) Health, Financial & Family Benefits; (4) Vacation & Time Off; (5) Employee
Communications; (6) Performance Management; (7) Training & Skills Development;
and (8) Community Involvement. Employers are compared to other organizations in their
field to determine which offers the most progressive and forward-thinking programs.
Eligibility Requirements
Any employer with its head office or principal place of business in New Brunswick, PEI,
Nova Scotia or Newfoundland & Labrador may apply for the Atlantic Canada's Top Employers competition. Employers of any size may apply, whether private or public sector.
