Toronto, Canada, 2016-Nov-11 — /Travel PR News/ — Marriott Hotels of Canada (NASDAQ: MAR) has been named a 2017 Aon Best Employer in Canada for the 12th year in a row.
President for Marriott Hotels of Canada, Don Cleary said, “Our associates are truly our greatest and most valued asset. We strive to be true to the principle established by our founder J Willard Marriott, to always take care of our associates, as they in turn will then always take care of our hotel guests. This recognition shows that Marriott still takes this to heart. It makes me enormously proud of our company and our team of associates across Canada.”
Neil Crawford, Partner and Canada Leader, Talent, Rewards & Performance at Aon Hewitt, said, “Being a Best Employer doesn’t just happen – it takes teamwork and a commitment to excellence from leaders, managers and employees alike. It means that the organization inspires strong commitment and superior performance from its people, and drives business results through effective people practices. Not only has Marriott Hotels of Canada achieved this, but also its parent company, Marriott International Inc., who is currently the only employer to hold the title of Global Aon Best Employer.”
Marisa Milton, Vice President of Human Resources, Canada for Marriott International said the company is dedicated to its associates’ professional development and personal wellbeing.
“At Marriott, our innovative TakeCare programs encourage our associates to take care of themselves, their co-workers and their community. We know these programs keep our employees highly engaged and healthier, and this commitment makes good business sense. We’ll continue to put people first in order to attract, develop and retain the best talent in Canada,” Milton said.
Marriott provides several best in class programs and resources to attract and retain employees. They include:
The Aon Best Employer in Canada study is the country’s premier benchmark for assessing the quality and performance of workplace excellence using global standards.
