Calgary, AB, 2016-Feb-04 — /Travel PR News/ — The Calgary Airport Authority has once again received recognition of its efforts in creating one of the best places to work in Alberta. The accolade marks the seventh time that the Authority has been acknowledged for cultivating a vibrant workplace for its more than 300 employees who work to develop, maintain and operate one of Canada’s busiest airports.
“While we have developed a number of programs to enrich the employees’ work experience at the Authority, the employees themselves are a huge part of bringing those programs to life through their enthusiasm and commitment,” said Cynthia Tremblay, Vice President of Human Resources for The Calgary Airport Authority. “The programming that is available at the Authority has become one of our defining factors as an employer and has given us the ability to attract and retain the best talent to help us grow Alberta’s aviation hub of choice.”
The Authority’s key employee offerings include: ongoing opportunities for professional development, a one-year orientation program, a robust benefits and pension plan, meaningful student work opportunities and a peer-to-peer recognition program. Additionally, Authority employees have the opportunity to participate in numerous volunteer and social initiatives such as lunchtime yoga, Calgary Corporate Challenge, a triennial employee retreat and opportunities to volunteer at the Mustard Seed.
Alberta’s Top Employers is an annual competition organized by the editors of Canada’s Top 100 Employers. This special designation recognizes the Alberta employers that lead their industries in offering exceptional places to work.
