Vigilant Global among top 50 best small and medium employers in Canada 2012

Montreal, QC – February 8, 2012 – Vigilant Global today announced it was named among the Best 50 Small and Medium Employers in Canada. Vigilant Global placed 8th out of 50 small- to medium-sized businesses from across the country. The study, now in its seventh year, is published annually in PROFIT Magazine.

“We’ve always known our employees enjoyed coming to Vigilant every day, but having it recognized on a national scale is beyond our expectations,” said Josh Felker, co-founder and Managing Director of Vigilant Global. “We’re thrilled by this recognition and wish to thank our employees for all their hard work and loyalty.”

Becoming a Best Small and Medium Employer is a very detailed and competitive process. This national awards program recognizes top employers with between 50 and 399 employees. The program mirrors the renowned Best Employer in Canada list published in Maclean’s Magazine; however, caters to smaller businesses.

The rankings are primarily determined by using the results from employee opinion surveys. The evaluation process also includes the assessment of organizational practices and perspectives from the leadership team. This year, more than 250 organizations across Canada participated in the study.

Study partners include Queen's School of Business, Queen’s Centre for Business Venturing and AON Hewitt. More information about the Best Small & Medium Employers in Canada is available online at http://bsmestudycanada.com.
