RedPoint Named One of Canada’s Top Small & Medium Employers
MEDIA RELEASE
December 9, 2013 – RedPoint Media & Marketing Solutions has been named one of Canada’s Top Small & Medium Employers for 2014. The award was granted by the prestigious Canada’s Top 100 Employers project, an annual competition recognizing companies that offer exceptional, industry-leading workplaces.
Now in its second year, the Canada’s Top Small & Medium Employers list is organized by the editors responsible for the Canada’s Top 100 Employers project, and is intended to spotlight companies that have fewer than 500 employees. Eligible employers are evaluated according to specific criteria, including physical workplace and atmosphere, benefits, communications, time off, employee engagement, training and community involvement.
RedPoint president Pete Graves had this to say about the good news, “We’re tremendously honoured to receive recognition at the national level, and humbled to be included in a category with so many truly impressive organizations.”
RedPoint Media & Marketing Solutions is one of Western Canada’s largest independent publishers. The company’s award-winning brands include Avenue, Calgary’s city lifestyle magazine, and up!, WestJet’s in-flight magazine. It also provides complete custom publishing and marketing solutions for businesses, arts organizations and other clients. RedPoint was named to the Profit 100 list of Canada’s Fastest Growing Companies in 2008 and 2009.
According to Graves, being named one of Canada’s Top Small & Medium Employers is recognition of the cumulative effect of many small efforts. “This award is a reflection of the talent and commitment of each individual in the team, as well as the ongoing support of our clients. It’s a privilege to spend every workday in a place where people love what they do and take pride in doing it well. Receiving this recognition just inspires everyone to be even better.”
Canada’s Top Small & Medium Employers for 2014 will be announced on Dec. 6, 2013 in the Report on Business section of The Globe and Mail and on the popular job search site, Eluta.ca.
