BC's Top Employers

Profiling the employers in British Columbia that lead their industries in offering exceptional places to work

Background
Now entering its fifth year, BC's Top Employers is an annual competition organized by the editors of Canada's Top 100 Employers. This special designation recognizes the British Columbia employers that lead their industries in offering exceptional places to work.

Selection Process
Employers are evaluated by the editors of Canada's Top 100 Employers using the same eight criteria as the national competition: (1) Physical 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.

Editorial Partners
Our editorial partners on the BC's Top Employers project are the three largest newspapers in British Columbia: The Province, The Vancouver Sun, and the Victoria Times Colonist. Each fall, the three newspapers announce the winners in special editorial supplements, which also include our reasons for selecting each employer. Read this year's editorial features announcing BC's Top Employers published in the Vancouver Sun on October 18, 2008.

Research Partner
The BC Human Resources Management Association is our research partner on the BC's Top Employers project. The BC HRMA works with us to help expand knowledge of best practices in recruitment and retention, both within the human resources profession and among the broader public.

Eligibility Requirements
Any employer with its head office or principal place of business in British Columbia may apply for this competition. Employers of any size may apply, whether private or public sector.

2010 Competition
Our 2010 winners will be announced in special editorial supplements in The Province, The Vancouver Sun and the Times Colonist on the weekend of October 17, 2009.
