March 14, 2023 – For the seventh consecutive year, Saskatchewan Polytechnic has been recognized as a Top Employer in Saskatchewan. With a focus on applied learning and applied research, Sask Polytech is dedicated to hiring talented and dedicated professionals who are committed to helping students meet their educational and professional goals.
Saskatchewan's Top Employers is an annual competition organized by the editors of Canada's Top 100 Employers. This special designation recognizes the Saskatchewan-based employers who stand out in their respective industries by providing outstanding workplaces for their employees.
“Our employees’ commitment to excellence goes to the very core of our mission, which is to inspire success in every learning journey,” says Dr. Larry Rosia, Sask Polytech president and CEO. “Being selected as a Top Employer for the seventh consecutive year is a great honour. Thank you to our exceptional faculty and staff for their ongoing commitment, loyalty, ideas and collaboration to make Sask Polytech a great place to work.”
Employers are evaluated by the editors of Canada's Top 100 Employers using the same eight criteria as the national competition: physical workplace; work atmosphere & social; health, financial & family benefits; vacation & time off; employee communications; performance management; training & skills development and community involvement. Employers are compared to other organizations in their field to determine which offer the most progressive and forward-thinking programs.
Sask Polytech offers a range of employee benefits, including competitive salaries, professional development opportunities and a comprehensive benefits package. One of the reasons Sask Polytech was chosen as a top employer was for the supports offered to employees throughout the various stages of life, from maternity and parental leave top-up payments, to flexible work options to help balance personal and family commitments, to phased-in work options for those in the later stages of their career.
Sask Polytech also recognizes outstanding employees who go above and beyond to inspire success in every learning journey. Faculty awards are presented each year during convocation in the spring. Employees are also recognized at retirement, long service and employee awards celebration events annually.
Private and public sector employers with a head office or principal place of business located in Saskatchewan may apply to the competition.
