For the 5th consecutive year Intact
recognized as exceptional workplace
TORONTO, Dec. 5, 2019 /CNW/ - Intact Financial
Corporation (TSX: IFC) is pleased to announce it has been
certified as a Kincentric 2019 Best Employer in Canada and in the
United States. This year, as a result of being recognized in
both countries, Intact also received the North America regional Best Employer
certification.
This is the fifth consecutive year that Intact has been
recognized as a Best Employer in Canada and the first certification in the
U.S.
"This recognition is meaningful to Intact because it is based
solely on employee feedback," said Chief Executive Officer
Charles Brindamour. "The reason we
received these awards was because of our employees' collective
commitment to our customers, their colleagues and to bringing their
very best to the job every single day."
Intact is a Best Employer because of its employees. Intact is
committed to maintaining the position as a Best Employer and will
continue to live its values by striving for excellence, creating a
workplace that supports personal growth and development, and
recognizing the valuable contributions made by teams across the
organization.
Evaluation criteria
Kincentric's Best Employer awards recognize employers by
evaluating results from four indices linked to a committed
workforce that delivers stronger business results. Best Employers
must perform in the top 25% for employee engagement and in two of
the three following indices: Agility, Engaging Leadership, and
Talent Focus. Intact's employee survey responses are confidentially
scored by Kincentric and compared against each index in its
regional database benchmark.
