UNI RECOGNIZED AS ONE OF ATLANTIC CANADA'S TOP EMPLOYERS


UNI RECOGNIZED AS ONE OF ATLANTIC CANADA'S TOP EMPLOYERS

Caraquet, January 27, 2023 - UNI receives the award as one of Atlantic Canada’s Top Employers, the third consecutive earned in recent months recognizing the corporate values of our financial cooperative. It recognizes the top 40 employers in the Atlantic provinces that lead their industry, those whose culture is tailored to the needs of their employees and communities.

Employers are evaluated using eight criteria including workplace, work atmosphere, benefits, holiday and time off, workplace relations, performance management, training and skills development and community involvement. 

The project is unique in that it spans four provinces, recognizing that many employers in this region have operations throughout Atlantic Canada.

“Being in the top 40 is a recruitment opportunity for UNI,” says President and CEO Robert Moreau. “This recognition shows the general public as well as our members and clients that our employees truly embody our corporate values every day. That’s how we got here. Our employees’ solidarity, commitment and hard work are what put us in the spotlight again today,” Moreau explains.

The key factors that earned UNI a spot on this prestigious list include:

  • Encouraging our employees to recruit by offering referral incentives;
  • Supporting the continued learning and development of our employees by subsidizing fees for courses directly and indirectly related to the employee’s position, as well as financial incentives for completed courses and certifications.
  • Giving employees the opportunity to present financial education awareness sessions to students in schools, and providing $150,000 annually in scholarships to support New Brunswick post-secondary students.

The winners of the Atlantic Canada’s Top Employers 2023 award were announced by Mediacorp Canada Inc. For more details: https://www.canadastop100.com/atlantic/.

 UNI was also recognized as a winner in the 2022 program of Canada’s Most Admired Corporate Cultures last November, and was awarded Atlantic Canada’s Best Places to Work a few weeks ago.
