Background
Now entering its sixth year, Montreal's Top Employers is an annual competition organized by the editors of Canada's Top 100 Employers. This special designation recognizes the Montreal-area 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 Montreal's Top Employers project are The Gazette, one of the oldest continuously published newspapers in North America, and Le Devoir, perhaps the most widely respected newspaper in French-speaking Canada. Each fall, The Gazette and Le Devoir announce the winners of Montreal's Top Employers in special editorial supplements, which also includes our reasons for selecting each employer. This year's winners were announced in The Gazette on October 17, 2009. Read some of their coverage:
