Map: Where are Canada's top 100 employers?

Globe and Mail Update

This year’s Top 100 Employers list is the product of extensive evaluation, including a detailed review of each employer’s operations and human resource practices. Employers are compared with other organizations in their field.

Mediacorp’s editors reviewed the recruitment histories of more than 75,000 employers across the country before inviting 12,500 of these to apply. It was a record year for submissions.

Competition focuses on eight key areas: Physical workplace; work and social atmosphere; health, financial and family benefits; vacation and time off; communications, focused on how employers handle employee feedback; performance management; training and skills development; and community involvement.

Zoom into the map to find out if any of these desirable workplaces are located near you.
