April 27, 2018   by DAS Canada

TORONTO, April 27, 2018 /insPRESS/ – DAS Canada is honoured to be recognized as one of Canada’s Best Places to Work for the second time. This year’s winners are announced in a special national report on Friday, April 27, 2018 in The Globe and Mail.

At DAS, one of our core values is to be a great place to work. This value is fundamental to our daily work and everyday life, creating a fulfilling and respectful work environment. Being a great place to work is a commitment to empower our staff to reach their personal and career goals, through employee recognition, team building events, comprehensive benefits, and professional development training offered company-wide.

“We are excited to be recognized again as one of Canada’s Best Workplaces. Being a great place to work is central to who we are and we know it’s something we can never take for granted,” said Barbara Haynes, CEO of DAS Canada. “We are proud to have a strong company culture and welcome all of those who have joined our young company. I would like to thank everyone at DAS for their continued drive, passion, and commitment to access to justice.”

This list of “Best Workplaces in Canada” is compiled by Great Place to Work® Institute Canada. This year’s list received hundreds of nominations, and thousands of employees participated in the 2018 “Best Workplaces in Canada” survey. The competition is based on an extensive survey process to employees, offering 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 the five trust-building dimensions of a Great Place to Work®: credibility, respect, fairness, pride, and camaraderie.
