Background
Now entering its seventh year, the Canada's Top Employers for Young People competition is organized by the editors of Canada's Top 100 Employers. This special designation recognizes the employers that offer the nation's best benefits for younger workers. The employers on this list are Canada's leaders in attracting and retaining younger employees to their organizations.
Selection Process
Each employer is evaluated by the editors of Canada's Top 100 Employers in terms of the programs they have to attract and retain younger workers. These include benefits such as tuition assistance and the availability of co-op or work-study programs. Our editors also examine the employer's training programs, including benefits such as financial bonuses paid when employees complete certain courses or professional designations. We also review each employer's career management program, looking for tools such as company-wide skills management inventories that can help younger workers advance faster in the organization. Lastly, our editors also look at the average age of people working at each employer to help develop a clearer profile of their workforce.
Eligibility Requirements
Any employer with its head office or principal place of business in Canada may apply for this competition. Employers of any size may apply, whether private or public sector.
2008 Competition
Each year, the winners of this competition have been published in an appendix to the Canada's Top 100 Employers publication. Winners of our this year's competition will be announced by Mediacorp editors in Spring 2008.
