\"\"<\/a>Workplace Safety North (WSN) has been recognized with Great Place to Work\u00ae certification for its dedication toward maintaining a workplace culture rich in trust, respect, and shared values.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

WSN employees filled out a survey in late 2024 to give feedback on how they felt about working with the organization. A total of 88% of the team say WSN is a great place to work: this is significantly higher than the 60% of people who say that about their own workplaces.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cAs part of our commitment to keeping a strong, positive workplace culture, we ask our team to fill out the Great Place to Work\u00ae survey every two years,\u201d says Megan Johnson, Director of Human Resources at WSN. \u201cWe\u2019ve consistently had over 80% of our people say this is a great place to work. This year, we took an extra step to get this certification. This achievement creates shared pride for all of us.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cOur people really connect with and uphold our core values, which we refer to as CIRT: compassion, integrity, respect, and team spirit,\u201d says Mike Parent, WSN President and Chief Executive Officer. \u201cI\u2019m pleased that we went the extra step to receive this certification this year. It\u2019s through true commitment to our mandate and the common support each teammate has for each other that we\u2019re able to achieve this milestone.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In addition to Great Place to Work\u00ae certification, WSN has also been recognized by Excellence Canada in prior years with a platinum award of excellence in the Mental Health at Work category (2024), and silver (2015), gold (2019), and platinum (2022) awards in the Healthy Workplace category.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cFor us to help employers across Ontario see every worker home safe and healthy, we know we need to work toward our mission with our own people first,\u201d says Parent. \u201cWe\u2019re dedicated to helping workplaces build strong health and safety cultures, which contributes to the overall well-being of everyone at a workplace. Ours is no different. I\u2019m pleased with these results as they reflect our commitment to our people.\u201d<\/p>\n
