Samsung Canada Named One of 50 Most Engaged Workplaces

Innovative employee engagement secures recognition at the 2021 Achievers 50 Most Engaged Workplaces® Awards

Samsung Canada is being recognized as one of the 50 Most Engaged Workplaces by Achievers, a leading employee engagement company. The annual awards recognize top employers that display leadership and innovation in engaging their workplaces.

One of Samsung Canada’s most popular engagement tools is their innovative employee recognition platform through the Achievers platform, that provides employees and managers the opportunity to celebrate colleagues with virtual kudos. These moments of recognition accumulate into rewards points that can be redeemed for gift cards and other prizes.

“It’s immensely satisfying to receive this recognition from Achievers, because it reinforces that Samsung Canada employees are highly engaged, generous and eager to embrace team members’ accomplishments,’” said Jeff Jo, President and CEO, Samsung Electronics Canada. “Over the last year and a half, it has been particularly special to see the Samsung Canada family come together in support of one another’s hard work and commitment.”

“The COVID-19 pandemic presented a myriad of challenges for businesses and their workforce. But these unprecedented times also offered an opportunity for organizations to support their people. Companies that prioritized employee experience, recognition and employee voice have seen increased productivity, higher employee engagement and stronger loyalty,” said Jeff Cates, CEO and president at Achievers. “This year’s 50 Most Engaged winners embody what it means to be a ‘people-first’ business and have proven how the prioritization of employee experience can help an organization withstand even the most difficult of times.”

To evaluate the contenders and select the top 50 engaged workplaces, Achievers assembled a panel of 15 esteemed judges comprised of employee engagement academics, industry analysts, thought leaders, journalists and influencers. The panel selected winners based on Achievers’ Eight Elements of Employee Engagement: Accountability and Performance, Belonging, Equity and Inclusion, Culture Alignment, Manager Empowerment, Professional and Personal Growth, Purpose and Leadership, Recognition and Rewards, and Wellbeing.
