Mabel's Labels Named Among Canada’s Top Small & Medium Employers for 2015
(PRWEB) March 13, 2015 -- Mabel’s Labels, the market leader for labels for the stuff kids lose® and an award-winning company established by four moms, today announced that it has been named one of Canada’s Top Small and Medium Employers for 2015, by the editors of Canada’s Top 100 Employers. The award recognized 100 private-sector companies with under 500 employees for their exceptional workplaces and forward-thinking human resource policies. This year’s winners were announced in a special magazine in The Globe and Mail’s March 10th edition.
“This honor recognizes Mabel’s Labels as a role model for small and medium employers, as well as our dedication to our employees both inside and outside the workplace,” says Julie Cole, Co-founder of Mabel’s Labels.
For consideration for Canada’s Top Small and Medium Employers for 2015, employers were evaluated on criteria including physical workplace, work atmosphere and social, health, financial and family benefits, vacation and time off, employee communications, performance management, training and skills development, and community involvement.
Mabel’s Labels is committed to its employees’ work-life balance and career development. Policies and programs include flexible hours and telecommuting options, including temporary workstations for its telecommuting employees; ongoing employee education with generous tuition subsidies for both career-related and non-related courses at outside institutions; and volunteer days in the wider community with paid time off. The company has also created an employee-led "Smiles and Chuckles" social committee, which helps organize a variety of company-wide events.
“Small and medium enterprises play a very significant role in Canada’s economy,” said Tony Meehan, Publisher at Mediacorp. More than 90% of the Canadians who work in the private- sector are employed by SMEs, which were responsible for three-quarters of new jobs created in Canada over the past decade. “It’s important for Canadians to learn what the most innovative SME offer and to realize that smaller employers are capable of doing remarkable things for their employees.”
