LGM Financial Services has been named one of Canada’s top employers in Aon Hewitt’s 2018 Best Small and Medium Employers study.
This is the third consecutive year the company, a Canadian auto industry supplier of warranty, finance and insurance products, has appeared on the list. LGM has also been placed in the Gold category due to an engagement score of 75 per cent.
“We’re thrilled to have been recognized for our commitment to workplace excellence and the value we place on our organization’s people,” says founder and CEO of LGM, Adam Hill. “By creating and maintaining a strong company culture, our employees come to a work environment every day that allows them to utilize their talent, passion, and creativity.”
To appear on the list, companies must demonstrate their ability to engage employees, provide effective leadership skills, create a performance-oriented culture among employees, and leverage the strength of their employer brand, according to the news release.
Companies that are able to do this typically have a lower staff turnover rate, are able to improve customer satisfaction, and benefit from a higher growth in profit.
The 2018 study also looks at the performance of each company based on data collected from over 734,000 employees and more than 500 companies of all sizes in Canada, said Todd Mathers, Partner, Canada Talent Practice Leader, Aon Hewitt.
