Members of Canada’s Electrical Industry Among Our Greenest Employers

Green Employers

 

Now entering its 9th year, Canada’s Greenest Employers is an editorial competition organized by the Canada’s Top 100 Employers project. This special designation recognizes the employers that lead the nation in creating a culture of environmental awareness in their organizations. These employers have developed exceptional earth-friendly initiatives — and are attracting people to their organizations because of their environmental leadership.

“Building environmental awareness improves the culture of an organization far beyond the confines of the ‘green’ debate,” says Richard Yerema, Managing Editor at the Canada’s Top 100 Employers project at Mediacorp Canada Inc., which organizes the competition. “Creating a culture of sustainability attracts people to the organization who are interested in new approaches to problems.”

The winners of this year’s competition offer a catalogue of best practices for any organization interested in making environmental values central to their culture.

Electrical industry members include the following: 

BC Hydro
Hydro Ottawa Limited
Manitoba Hydro
PowerStream, Inc.
Siemens Canada Limited
