Toronto, ON (April 13) – Grant Thornton LLP, a leading Canadian accounting and business advisory firm, is honoured to be recognized as one of Canada’s Best Workplaces for the 14th consecutive year.
Grant Thornton LLP was also recognized as one of Canada’s Best Workplaces for women last month.
“There are so many reasons why our culture is special, but the backbone of our culture is our inclusive community,” says Kevin Ladner, CEO and Executive Partner, Grant Thornton LLP. “Every day I see our people working together so that our colleagues, clients and communities thrive – and that matters now more than ever.”
The results for the 2021 List of Best Workplaces™ for Women was based on the Great Place to Work survey. In order to be considered, an organization must have a minimum of 90% positive response to the statement “I am treated fairly regardless of my gender.”
The 2021 Best Workplaces™ in Canada list is compiled by the Great Place to Work® Institute. The competition process to be ranked on this list is employee driven, based on two criteria: two-thirds of the total score comes from confidential employee survey results and the remaining one-third 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.
“We’re so honoured to be recognized by Great Place to work once again,” says Sharon Healy, Chief People & Culture Officer, Grant Thornton LLP. “It celebrates what I know to be true – that our people care for one another and are proud of what we achieve together.”
At Grant Thornton, we are proud to be a part of a purpose-driven team where we put “we” before “me.” To learn more about careers and our award-winning culture, please visit Discoveryourpurple.ca.
