Greater Toronto's Top Employers

Profiling the employers in Greater Toronto that lead their industries in offering exceptional places to work

Background
Now entering its third year, Greater Toronto's Top Employers is an annual competition organized by the editors of Canada's Top 100 Employers. This special designation recognizes the Greater Toronto 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 Partner
The Toronto Star is our editorial partner on the Greater Toronto's Top Employers project. Each fall, the Star announces the winners in a special editorial supplement, which also includes our reasons for selecting each employer. The Toronto Star published a special editorial supplement on October 13, 2007 announcing the winners of the 2008 competition.

Eligibility Requirements
Any employer with its head office or principal place of business in the Greater Toronto Area may apply for this competition. For ease of reference, we define Greater Toronto to include the City of Toronto and the Regional Municipalities of York, Halton, Peel and Durham. Employers of any size may apply, whether private or public sector.

2009 Competition
Our 2009 winners will be announced in a special editorial supplement in the Toronto Star in October, 2008.

How to Apply
Employers apply for this competition through the Canada's Top 100 Employers application process. Employers complete a single application package for both competitions. Request an application.
