The Saskatchewan Apprenticeship and Trade Certification Commission (SATCC) has been named one of Saskatchewan’s Top Employers for 2019 by Mediacorp Canada Inc.

“We’re proud to be named one of Saskatchewan’s Top Employers. Our employees are highly engaged and they feel valued for the work they do,” SATCC CEO Jeff Ritter said. “In turn, they provide exceptional service to our clients: Saskatchewan’s apprentices and employers.”

According to the SATCC’s 2017 Apprentice and Employer Satisfaction Surveys, administered by Insightrix, SATCC staff members are doing a great job.

More than 90 per cent of apprentice employer respondents agreed staff members are helpful, friendly and knowledgeable; and more than 80 per cent of apprentice respondents agreed.

“At the SATCC, we love what we do and it shows,” Ritter said. “We also have active Employee Engagement and Social Committees. These committees help ensure employees’ voices are heard and that we’re planning fun events in recognition of our staff members’ work across the province.”

Organizations who apply for this award are evaluated by the editors of Canada’s Top 100 Employers on: physical workplace; work atmosphere and social; health, financial and family benefits; vacation and time off; employee communications; performance management; training and skills development; and community involvement.

This is the first time the SATCC has applied for and received the award. To view the full list of winners, visit: https://www.canadastop100.com/sk/.

In addition to facilitating the Canada’s Top 100 Employers competition (and the associated special-interest and regional competitions), Mediacorp Canada Inc. operates Eluta.ca, a Canadian job search engine.
