Phoenix Contact recognized as a Best Workplace

Phoenix Contact

April 30, 2018

Phoenix Contact is being recognized as one of this year’s Best Workplaces in Canada. 

The 2018 Best Workplaces in Canada list is compiled by the Great Place to WorkInstitute.

The competition process is based on two criteria: two-thirds of the total score comes from confidential employee survey results and the remaining one-third comes from an in-depth review of the organization’s culture. This offers a rigorous representation of the organization from an employee perspective, and an overall portrait of the workplace culture. Together, they provide crucial data relative to five trust-building dimensions: credibility, respect, fairness, pride, and camaraderie.

This year’s list received over 400 registrations and over 80,000 employees participated in the 2018 “Best Workplaces™ in Canada” survey, rolling out to impact over 300,000 Canadian employees.
