Toronto, October 17, 2022 – Assurant is proud to announce that we have been certified as a Great Place to Work® after a thorough, independent analysis conducted by Great Place to Work Institute® Canada. This certification is based on direct feedback from employees, provided as part of an extensive and anonymous survey about their workplace experience. This is the first time that Assurant has received this honour in Canada.
“Our culture, guided by our values and aligned to our purpose, drives employee engagement and supports talent retention as Assurant empowers career satisfaction and growth within the organization,” said Paul Cosgrove, President & CEO, Assurant Canada. “Being Great Place to Work-Certified™ recognizes the work we do every day to demonstrate that our employees are valued, and Assurant is a place where people can thrive and develop their careers.”
Nancy Fonseca, Senior Vice President of Great Place to Work® Canada, says that a great workplace is about the level of trust that employees experience in their leaders, the level of pride they have in their jobs, and the extent to which they enjoy their colleagues. "Our data shows that great workplaces benefit from stronger financial performance, reduced turnover, and better customer satisfaction than their peers. What's more, work environments with trust at the foundation are ripe for innovation, agility, resilience and efficiency," Fonseca said.
